DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Shower tray repair at your home in Marshfield

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can generally put it right.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Marshfield

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

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

Common questions in Marshfield

Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Marshfield. Prices don’t change with location.

How soon can you come?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Marshfield?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What affects the price in Marshfield

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Marshfield?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marshfield

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cardiff and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price
