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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

Questions from Ledsham

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover the entire of Leeds?

Everywhere in the UK, Ledsham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Ledsham

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ledsham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
