About our shower tray repair in Defynnog

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. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and chips on the edges, in cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Defynnog: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work in Defynnog?

We do. We send a technician to Defynnog for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What areas do you cover?

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repairing versus replacing in Defynnog

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

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.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Defynnog. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Defynnog, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Defynnog, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. 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. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common problems we fix in Defynnog

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
