About our shower tray repair in Woodshutts
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include a damaged area around the waste and a tray that flexes, in cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Woodshutts
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Woodshutts. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
FAQs for Woodshutts
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
