Shower tray repair in Walesby without replacing anything
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel

Walesby: your questions answered
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Walesby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Walesby
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Walesby

- Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Walesby. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
