Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Maesycwmmer and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Honest limits

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

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Maesycwmmer, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Questions from Maesycwmmer

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the next day.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

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.
