Shower tray repair for Redhill homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Redhill

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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

What happens on the day

We turn 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, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Redhill questions

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Redhill. Prices don’t change with location.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Redhill?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Honest limits

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Redhill

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
