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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Bryn-llwyd questions

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Do you cover the entire of Gwynedd?

Everywhere in the UK, Bryn-llwyd included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

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

What affects the price in Bryn-llwyd

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
