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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Woodnesborough: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Woodnesborough included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What affects the price in Woodnesborough

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Woodnesborough, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repair or replace in Woodnesborough?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodnesborough

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodnesborough as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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 the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
