Shower tray repair at your home in Woolsbridge

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Woolsbridge, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Woolsbridge

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Woolsbridge

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.
