About our shower tray repair in Llangennech

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a crack across the base and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Questions from Llangennech

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Llangennech.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Llangennech, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Llangennech, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Llangennech customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our full price list.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
