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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Sutton: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Sutton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Sutton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Sutton

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. 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.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
