Repairing versus replacing in Tircoed

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tircoed. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we handle shower tray repair in Tircoed

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Tircoed

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

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 will tell you.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
