Penparcau: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Ceredigion.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in Penparcau?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repair or replace in Penparcau?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penparcau. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
