Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodlands. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Woodlands, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Woodlands: your questions answered

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Common problems we fix in Woodlands

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Woodlands customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
