How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Shower tray repair in Llyswyrny without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and a crack across the base, on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Llyswyrny

How much does shower tray repair cost in Llyswyrny?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CF71 postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do the materials smell?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Llyswyrny, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Llyswyrny

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book

Landlord and trade work in Llyswyrny

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Llyswyrny, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
