About our shower tray repair in Lower Farringdon

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can help, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

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

Questions from Lower Farringdon

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Repair or replace in Lower Farringdon?

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

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

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.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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 normally the cheaper route.
