Book shower tray repair in Ystrad Mynach

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Shower tray repair at your home in Ystrad Mynach

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Ystrad Mynach

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Ystrad Mynach?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray

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

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

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Ystrad Mynach?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
