Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Common questions in Llysworney

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of the Vale of Glamorgan. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the next day.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What affects the price in Llysworney

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Llysworney. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Llysworney get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we are called out for in Llysworney

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A crack across the base

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
