What affects the price in Swffryd

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Swffryd. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Landlord and trade work in Swffryd

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Swffryd questions

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Caerphilly. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swffryd. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Signs you need shower tray repair in Swffryd

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Common reasons people in Swffryd contact us are:

  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
