How it works

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, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Pibwrlwyd, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Questions from Pibwrlwyd

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you work in Pibwrlwyd?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Pibwrlwyd from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Pibwrlwyd?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
