How we handle shower tray repair in Am Blàran Odhar

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is 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 reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we’re called out for in Am Blàran Odhar

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
