Shower tray repair for Michaelston homes

Shower tray repair in Michaelston without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray, we can help, on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our full price list.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Michaelston. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Michaelston, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

Landlord and trade work in Michaelston

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Michaelston

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Michaelston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Michaelston and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
