Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Woodthorpe

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Woodthorpe?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Woodthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Woodthorpe

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
