Shower tray repair in Crwbin

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

About our shower tray repair in Crwbin

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We’re often asked to fix a crack across the base and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Crwbin questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

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 will ask for another photo.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Do you cover the entire of Carmarthenshire?

The whole UK, including all of Carmarthenshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Crwbin.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
