How we handle shower tray repair in Wokefield

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic alike.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Wokefield

  • No need to remove anything
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Questions from Wokefield

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What information do you need?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Wokefield

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  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. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
