Shower tray repair in Griffithstown

How we handle shower tray repair in Griffithstown

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges, we can help, on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Griffithstown: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Torfaen?

The whole UK, including all of Torfaen. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

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.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Torfaen.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Should you replace it?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

What affects the price in Griffithstown

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Griffithstown

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price
