Landlord and trade work in Aberthin
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF71 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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Questions from Aberthin
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover the whole of the Vale of Glamorgan?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Aberthin. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
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’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
