Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Woodlane

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When to call us in Woodlane

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woodlane. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Woodlane

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
