Shower tray repair in Mortimer without replacing anything

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

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.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Mortimer

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Mortimer

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our pricing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Mortimer, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mortimer as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common questions in Mortimer

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you cover Mortimer?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mortimer and the rest of West Berkshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

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

What areas do you cover?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we work on in Mortimer

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Mortimer

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Mortimer contact us include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
