About our shower tray repair in Blaencwm

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips on the edges.

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Blaencwm. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes

How to compare quotes

Blaencwm questions

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blaencwm as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Blaencwm, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
