Shower tray repair near Ystrad Fflur

Shower tray repair in Ystrad Fflur, done in place

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Ystrad Fflur

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Ystrad Fflur questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ystrad Fflur?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Ystrad Fflur

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ystrad Fflur. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

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

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ystrad Fflur?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
