What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we’re called out for in Wood's Corner

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Wood's Corner contact us are:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

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

Wood's Corner questions

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are there extra charges for Wood's Corner?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wood's Corner. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wood's Corner. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Repair or replace in Wood's Corner?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
