Common questions in Treharris
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Treharris
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Cracks running from the waste
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
