FAQs for Pontlottyn
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Pontlottyn?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF81 postcode.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
