Shower tray repair for Staunton homes

Shower tray repair in Staunton without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and chips on the edges, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Staunton. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Staunton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Common questions in Staunton

What areas do you cover?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
