Shower tray repair in Pant-mawr 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 crack does not come back. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pant-mawr

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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Materials we work on in Pant-mawr

When to call us in Pant-mawr

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Pant-mawr

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cardiff.

Can you quote from photos?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?

Everywhere in the UK, Pant-mawr included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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