Repair or replace in Caeo?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Shower tray repair in Caeo without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Common problems we fix in Caeo

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Caeo

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you come to Caeo?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Caeo from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you cover the entire of Carmarthenshire?

All of Carmarthenshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What affects the price in Caeo

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
