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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Repairing versus replacing in Upper Westholme

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Upper Westholme, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price
