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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What affects the price in Ton

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Ton questions

Is it messy?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ton.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Landlord and trade work in Ton

If you manage property in Ton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairing versus replacing in Ton

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
