Shower tray repair in Ringsfield Common, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped corners or rims and scuffs and light scratches.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

What affects the price in Ringsfield Common

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ringsfield Common. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ringsfield Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR34 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Ringsfield Common

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Ringsfield Common included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

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. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Ringsfield Common

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we’re called out for in Ringsfield Common

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
