About our shower tray repair in Woodside
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, in stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
There is 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Woodside questions
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Woodside?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Luton. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Repair or replace in Woodside?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Landlord and trade work in Woodside
