Shower tray repair near Llwyncelyn

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic

Shower tray repair at your home in Llwyncelyn

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Ceredigion.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Common questions in Llwyncelyn

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Ceredigion. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What we are called out for in Llwyncelyn

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise 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.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
