How we handle shower tray repair in Comins Coch

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and a cracked shower tray.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we are called out for in Comins Coch

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Comins Coch

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Comins Coch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Comins Coch

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Comins Coch?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SY23 postcode.

Do you cover Comins Coch?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Comins Coch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
