Landlord and trade work in Swanbach

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Do you need shower tray repair in Swanbach?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Swanbach?

A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

Common questions in Swanbach

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Swanbach?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CW3 postcode.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

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. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Swanbach, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
