Shower tray repair in Aber-arad

Shower tray repair at your home in Aber-arad

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. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and staining and dullness across the tray, across ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Aber-arad

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Aber-arad. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Aber-arad. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aber-arad questions

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Landlord and trade work in Aber-arad

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aber-arad as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
