About our shower tray repair in Murton

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches in the surface, across stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Do you need shower tray repair in Murton?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
