About our shower tray repair in Llanddewi Brefi

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can typically put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Llanddewi Brefi and across Ceredigion.

Common problems we fix in Llanddewi Brefi

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A crack across the base
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repair or replace in Llanddewi Brefi?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our full price list.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Llanddewi Brefi

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Llanddewi Brefi?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
