How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Leigh Woods questions

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Bristol. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Leigh Woods. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

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