FAQs for Sully and Lavernock
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Sully and Lavernock?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sully and Lavernock
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sully and Lavernock use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
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 does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Sully and Lavernock
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
