DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Shower tray repair at your home in Bishopston
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bishopston and across Swansea.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bishopston. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Bishopston
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage around the waste

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again

What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bishopston
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Bishopston is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Landlord and trade work in Bishopston
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Bishopston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
