Book shower tray repair in Llangollen Rural

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

About our shower tray repair in Llangollen Rural

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairing versus replacing in Llangollen Rural

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Llangollen Rural

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Llangollen Rural

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
