Shower tray repair in Westwood

When to call us in Westwood

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Common questions in Westwood

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What affects the price in Westwood

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Westwood, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Westwood

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westwood as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
