Questions from Woodham

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Woodham and the rest of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What we are called out for in Woodham

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Woodham

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodham. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woodham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
