We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Shower tray repair in Yarrowford, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and chipped corners or rims, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Common questions in Yarrowford

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you work in Yarrowford?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Yarrowford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Yarrowford

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
