About our shower tray repair in Llandaff

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and chipped corners or rims, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Llandaff as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Llandaff

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llandaff use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Llandaff

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

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. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Common questions in Llandaff

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover the whole of Cardiff?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
