About our shower tray repair in Quarr-Clydach

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked shower tray and staining and dullness across the tray.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Quarr-Clydach as everywhere else we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Repair or replace in Quarr-Clydach?

The tray is typically 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. A few things move the price: 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

FAQs for Quarr-Clydach

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you work in Quarr-Clydach?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Quarr-Clydach and the rest of Swansea. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What affects the price in Quarr-Clydach

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Quarr-Clydach. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Quarr-Clydach, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
