FAQs for Abertridwr
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
When to call us in Abertridwr
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Abertridwr and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Abertridwr
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abertridwr as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
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 may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
