Shower tray repair near Old Radnor

Shower tray repair at your home in Old Radnor

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about a tray that flexes and scuffs and light scratches.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlord and trade work in Old Radnor

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Old Radnor, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Old Radnor: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Powys?

Everywhere in the UK, Old Radnor included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you come to Old Radnor?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Old Radnor and the rest of Powys. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LD8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common problems we fix in Old Radnor

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
