About our shower tray repair in Woodworth Green

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Woodworth Green

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What affects the price in Woodworth Green

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
