How we handle shower tray repair in Llanfoist

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and staining and dullness across the tray, we can generally put it right, on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

FAQs for Llanfoist

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you come to Llanfoist?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Llanfoist. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Monmouthshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Llanfoist, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanfoist use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Llanfoist?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
