How we handle shower tray repair in Washingley

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a crack across the base and damage around the waste, we can normally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Washingley. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. 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 the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

Washingley: your questions answered

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
