Landlord and trade work in Woodlands St Mary
If you manage property in Woodlands St Mary, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Woodlands St Mary. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Woodlands St Mary
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote

- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
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 feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Woodlands St Mary. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
