  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

Shower tray repair in Glenboi without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we are called out for in Glenboi

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  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, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Glenboi questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Glenboi?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
