Shower tray repair in South Leigh, 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 are dealing with damage from a refit or building work and scuffs and light scratches, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Homes around South Leigh often have showers added to older buildings, and we always check the tray’s support first.

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

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Replacement in South Leigh means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What affects the price in South Leigh

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Leigh. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we work on in South Leigh

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it. Somewhere like South Leigh needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
