About our shower tray repair in Bwlchtocyn

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and chips caused during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Bwlchtocyn

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we work on in Bwlchtocyn

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bwlchtocyn. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
