Shower tray repair in Pant-y-graig-wen

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we handle shower tray repair in Pant-y-graig-wen

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and damage around the waste, we can help, on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Pant-y-graig-wen

How quickly can you book me in?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day, normally the day after.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover Pant-y-graig-wen?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pant-y-graig-wen. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF37 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Pant-y-graig-wen?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What we are called out for in Pant-y-graig-wen

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
