What else we do in Oakwood
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What affects the price in Oakwood
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DE21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oakwood
For anyone letting property in or around Oakwood, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
