Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Drefach

Do you cover the whole of Ceredigion?

We cover the whole UK, including Drefach and the rest of Ceredigion. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drefach

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drefach use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Drefach?

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
