Shower tray repair for Penthryn homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Penthryn

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and damage around the waste.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

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.

Penthryn questions

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Powys.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When to call us in Penthryn

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penthryn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Powys and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Penthryn. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Penthryn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
