About our shower tray repair in Colwyn Bay

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Colwyn Bay. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we’re called out for in Colwyn Bay

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
