Shower tray repair in Pentre

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Pentre

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and scuffs and light scratches.

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

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Do you need shower tray repair in Pentre?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentre as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Pentre

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Pentre. Prices don’t change with location.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
