How we handle shower tray repair in Cwmsyfïog

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cwmsyfïog

Do you cover the whole of Caerphilly?

The whole UK, including all of Caerphilly. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Damage around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
