Shower tray repair near Glanaman

How we handle shower tray repair in Glanaman

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Repair or replace in Glanaman?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Glanaman. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we’re called out for in Glanaman

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered

Common questions in Glanaman

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
