Book shower tray repair in Woodside

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Shower tray repair in Woodside without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and edge chips from dropped bottles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Woodside

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Woodside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Take a look at our pricing.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
