Shower tray repair for Blaenrhondda homes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair in Blaenrhondda without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches in the surface, we can help, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Blaenrhondda?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Blaenrhondda. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Take a look at our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Blaenrhondda

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blaenrhondda for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
