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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Postling Green

Your questions about shower tray repair in Postling Green

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Postling Green

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
