How we handle shower tray repair in Woodley

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chips on the edges and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Woodley and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

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

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Woodley questions

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Woodley?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
