Shower tray repair in Ffestiniog

Shower tray repair in Ffestiniog, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We are often asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it, across enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ffestiniog and across Gwynedd.

Where we work around Ffestiniog

Ffestiniog is about 17 miles south-east of Caernarfon, in Gwynedd. Jobs in Ffestiniog are booked in like any other job: a fixed price from your pictures, then a visit to do the work. Ffestiniog is one of 165 places in Gwynedd we cover. Our jobs stretch from Ffestiniog to Liverpool (about 51 miles away).

We work across LL41 and the streets around it. Jobs here include addresses on Baron Road, Towyn Road and Benar Road and the roads around them. With the A470 and A496 close by, Ffestiniog is easy for our repair technicians to reach. If you are just outside Ffestiniog, we cover Bethania (1 mile east), Blaenau Ffestiniog (1 mile north-west), Tyddyn gwyn (1 mile south), Manod (1 mile south) and Congl-y-wal (1 mile south). We also work in nearby towns such as Bethesda (14 miles north), Gerlan (14 miles north), Braichmelyn (14 miles north), Porthmadog (9 miles south-west), Y Bala (15 miles east) and Llanberis (12 miles north-west).

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Ffestiniog

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ffestiniog as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ffestiniog

Do you work in Ffestiniog?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ffestiniog and the rest of Gwynedd. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ffestiniog, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

When to call us in Ffestiniog

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
