Shower tray repair in Hafodyrynys

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Hafodyrynys

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a dull, stained or worn surface.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. 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.

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Hafodyrynys

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Caerphilly, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hafodyrynys as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
