Shower tray repair for Sabden homes

Shower tray repair in Sabden, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sabden as everywhere else we work.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Sabden

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

What affects the price in Sabden

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Sabden

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Sabden

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
