About our shower tray repair in Swinesherd

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and chips caused during fitting, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Landlord and trade work in Swinesherd

For anyone letting property in or around Swinesherd, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
