Shower tray repair near Sulhamstead

Shower tray repair at your home in Sulhamstead

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Sulhamstead

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sulhamstead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Sulhamstead

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Sulhamstead and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common problems we fix in Sulhamstead

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Common reasons people in Sulhamstead contact us include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
