Shower tray repair for Bancyfelin homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Bancyfelin

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Common questions in Bancyfelin

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bancyfelin.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Bancyfelin

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What shower tray repair costs

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
