Shower tray repair for Woodcross homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Woodcross

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything

Common questions in Woodcross

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Landlord and trade work in Woodcross

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What affects the price in Woodcross

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
