Shower tray repair for Woodton homes

Shower tray repair in Woodton without replacing anything

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a damaged area around the waste.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Woodton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Woodton

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Woodton questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Landlord and trade work in Woodton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Woodton

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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