What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Shower tray repair in Pwll-y-glaw without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips caused during fitting.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Pwll-y-glaw

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Landlord and trade work in Pwll-y-glaw

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Pwll-y-glaw, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What we are called out for in Pwll-y-glaw

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Questions from Pwll-y-glaw

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
