Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shefford Woodlands. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Shefford Woodlands

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Shefford Woodlands, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Shefford Woodlands

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • Who will actually do the work

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
