Common problems we fix in Trallwn

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Shower tray repair in Trallwn, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and a cracked shower tray.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF37 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Trallwn

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer 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. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
