Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Shower tray repair at your home in Pitshanger

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. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

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

What affects the price in Pitshanger

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Pitshanger: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work in Pitshanger?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pitshanger for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we work on in Pitshanger

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
