Repair or replace in Newton?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean 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. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

FAQs for Newton

How much does shower tray repair cost in Newton?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Newton and the rest of Swansea. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you work in Newton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Landlord and trade work in Newton

For developers and builders, we fix 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 to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
