How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Cwm-y-glo. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Cwm-y-glo: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the following day.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Carmarthenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Do you need shower tray repair in Cwm-y-glo?

Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Cwm-y-glo

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
