About our shower tray repair in Woodland

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix a damaged area around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, across ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodland

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodland use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Woodland: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Woodland. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
