Saint Andras questions
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Saint Andras?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Saint Andras?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover the entire of the Vale of Glamorgan?
The entire UK, including all of the Vale of Glamorgan. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What else we do in Saint Andras
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
What affects the price in Saint Andras
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Saint Andras
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Saint Andras, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
