Shower tray repair for Langton homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Shower tray repair at your home in Langton

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a damaged area around the waste and staining and dullness across the tray.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

What we’re called out for in Langton

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Langton

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Langton questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you come to Langton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Langton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Langton?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repair or replace in Langton?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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