Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place.

FAQs for Woodford Bridge

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Woodford Bridge and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodford Bridge. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

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.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Woodford Bridge

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When to call us in Woodford Bridge

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
