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.

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

Llanhilleth questions

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.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

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

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.

  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.

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
