Shower tray repair for Tre'r-ddol homes

Can I fix it myself?

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

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Shower tray repair at your home in Tre'r-ddol

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work, we can generally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Tre'r-ddol

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you cover the entire of Powys?

All of Powys, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you cover Tre'r-ddol?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tre'r-ddol for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

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

Repair or replace in Tre'r-ddol?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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 repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

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

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
