Common questions in Hollybush
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you come to Hollybush?
We do. We send a technician to Hollybush for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
All of Caerphilly, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Shower tray repair in Hollybush, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and edge chips from dropped bottles.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hollybush. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Hollybush, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
