Shower tray repair in Penyrheol

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Shower tray repair in Penyrheol without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches in the surface, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What we are called out for in Penyrheol

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Common reasons people in Penyrheol contact us are:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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 pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Penyrheol. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Penyrheol clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
