How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts 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.

FAQs for Woodhouse Eaves
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What we are called out for in Woodhouse Eaves
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
Before booking anyone

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
