What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Questions from Bwlch

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Bwlch?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LD3 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Landlord and trade work in Bwlch

For anyone letting property in or around Bwlch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bwlch use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bwlch. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
