Shower tray repair for Cwmavon homes

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Shower tray repair in Cwmavon, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Cwmavon

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Cwmavon

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Cwmavon

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Cwmavon?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cwmavon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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 often lifts.

What affects the price in Cwmavon

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cwmavon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cwmavon

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
