FAQs for Abertridwr

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Abertridwr?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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 following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Abertridwr

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
