Shower tray repair in Middle Winsham, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a damaged area around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Middle Winsham

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: 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.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our full price list.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
