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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Signs you need shower tray repair in Salsburgh

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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