Shower tray repair near Tyntetown

Tyntetown: your questions answered

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the day after.

Do you cover Tyntetown?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tyntetown. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

About our shower tray repair in Tyntetown

You don’t 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. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches in the surface and chips on the edges.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Tyntetown

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

What affects the price in Tyntetown

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

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

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF45 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Do you need shower tray repair in Tyntetown?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
