Shower tray repair near Monwode Lea

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Shower tray repair in Monwode Lea, done in place

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 aren’t disturbed. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the waste and cracks running from the waste.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

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