Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Lakeside, Doncaster
Shower tray repair in and around Lakeside: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Shower tray repair in Lakeside, done in place
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and edge chips from dropped bottles, across acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
What affects the price in Lakeside
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need shower tray repair in Lakeside?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Questions from Lakeside
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
