How we handle shower tray repair in Hundred Acres

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and staining and dullness across the tray, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

In a village like Hundred Acres, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where floors may be timber. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. Somewhere as small as Hundred Acres, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. For a rural home like those around Hundred Acres, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hundred Acres

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
