Shower tray repair for Llansteffan homes

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

About our shower tray repair in Llansteffan

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

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

Repairs by material

Stone resin

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

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.

When to call us in Llansteffan

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Llansteffan. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
