Shower tray repair for Banwy homes

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Advice

About our shower tray repair in Banwy

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and a cracked shower tray.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Banwy and across Powys.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

  • Everything repaired in place

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Banwy questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
