Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlord and trade work in Glyncoch

If you manage property in Glyncoch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan

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

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Glyncoch

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Glyncoch: your questions answered

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Glyncoch is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
