About our shower tray repair in Llanhilleth

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 so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base, on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

In and around Llanhilleth, most homes are houses or bungalows, and a tray repair is normally a short visit.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Llanhilleth questions

Can you fix shower trays in a rental near Llanhilleth station?

Yes. We repair shower trays between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and several addresses can be quoted together.

Can you repair shower trays at a school or business in Llanhilleth?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

How do I book?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanhilleth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need shower tray repair in Llanhilleth?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Trinant Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it. For a home in Llanhilleth, we normally park close by and start straight away, after agreeing the plan with you.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
