Shower tray repair near Llanspyddid

About our shower tray repair in Llanspyddid

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llanspyddid. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Llanspyddid

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
