Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Shower tray repair in Abererch, done in place
A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and damage around the waste.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Abererch
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
