About our shower tray repair in Bron-y-waun

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and chipped corners or rims, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bron-y-waun and across Bridgend.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

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

Common questions in Bron-y-waun

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bron-y-waun

If you manage property in Bron-y-waun, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

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