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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Questions from Pyrton

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Pyrton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How to care for the finish

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
