Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF40 postcode.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Penygraig.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Shower tray repair in Penygraig, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can generally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Penygraig and across Rhondda Cynon Taff.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Penygraig

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Penygraig. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Penygraig, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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