Shower tray repair at your home in Moston

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit, in enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

FAQs for Moston

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Moston

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Moston

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Moston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Moston

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
