Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What affects the price in Cwm-twrch Uchaf
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Cwm-twrch Uchaf. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
