Shower tray repair in Llwynhendy

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we handle shower tray repair in Llwynhendy

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, stained or worn surface and edge chips from dropped bottles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Llwynhendy and across Carmarthenshire.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Llwynhendy: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Llwynhendy

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
