About our shower tray repair in Y Bontnewydd-ar-Wy

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and chips caused during fitting, we can usually put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Y Bontnewydd-ar-Wy. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself 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. 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 usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Y Bontnewydd-ar-Wy as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.
