Gendros questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Swansea station?

Of course: photos and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Gendros?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SA5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it. In a smaller place like Gendros, parking is rarely a problem. If you’re down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book and we will plan for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. For a home around Gendros where the shower tray is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place

See our Prices page.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Common problems we fix in Gendros

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

If you manage a building such as Clwyd Community Primary School, we repair changing-room showers as well as work in homes.

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 normally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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