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

Questions from Wickersley

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

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

Do you cover the entire of Rotherham?

Everywhere in the UK, Wickersley included. Travel is included in the price.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Wickersley

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Wickersley

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

Common problems we fix in Wickersley

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
