Shower tray repair for Gwaun Treoda homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Shower tray repair in Gwaun Treoda without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Gwaun Treoda

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gwaun Treoda use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
