Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Pentre'rgaseg

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

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

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Questions from Pentre'rgaseg

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you work in Pentre'rgaseg?

We do. We send a technician to Pentre'rgaseg for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Are there extra charges for Pentre'rgaseg?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
