About our shower tray repair in Woodgate

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What affects the price in Woodgate

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

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

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Woodgate: your questions answered

How long does it take to cure?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Repair or replace in Woodgate?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Woodgate clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Woodgate

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.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
