Book shower tray repair in Scrooby

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Scrooby. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Scrooby, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Shower tray repair in Scrooby without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

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

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Do you need shower tray repair in Scrooby?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Scrooby: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Scrooby?

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

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
