Shower tray repair for Ollerton homes

Shower tray repair in Ollerton without replacing anything

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that flexes.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What we are called out for in Ollerton

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips on the edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Ollerton

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Ollerton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ollerton

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get 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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
