Shower tray repair for Cefngolau homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Cefngolau

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in Cefngolau

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cefngolau

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cefngolau. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Cefngolau

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
