FAQs for Cae-clyd

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gwynedd.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work in Cae-clyd?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cae-clyd and the rest of Gwynedd. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Common problems we fix in Cae-clyd

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
