Your questions about shower tray repair in Aberaman

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

All of Rhondda Cynon Taff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repair or replace in Aberaman?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aberaman

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

If you manage property in Aberaman, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
