Repairing versus replacing in Mudford Sock

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Mudford Sock clients choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Mudford Sock

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Mudford Sock questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
