How shower tray repair works in Newport

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a damaged area around the waste and movement when you stand on it.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

What’s near Newport

Typical jobs here are in homes near St Woolos Primary School, Greenfields School and TGI Fridays pub and the streets around them. You’ll also find Ysgol Bryn Derw (1.1 miles south-west), Belle Vue Park (0.6 miles south-west), St Stephen's church (1 mile south) and Church of St Mary (within half a mile north-west). There is a railway station in Newport itself: Newport (South Wales) station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Tredegar House Museum (2.2 miles south-west) and Newport Castle (within half a mile north). The countryside around Newport includes Somerton and Graig Ddifaith.

What affects the price in Newport

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

If you manage property in Newport, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Questions from Newport

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you work in Newport?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Newport. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
