Trusted shower tray repair in Shooter's Hill

How we handle shower tray repair in Shooter's Hill

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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 entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Your questions about shower tray repair in Shooter's Hill

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Shooter's Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shooter's Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
