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

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.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Monifieth

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Questions from Monifieth

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Monifieth

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
