Shower tray repair in Spen Brook

Shower tray repair in Spen Brook without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes, we can usually put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Spen Brook. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

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

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
