Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Shower tray repair at your home in Braichmelyn
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Braichmelyn: your questions answered
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Braichmelyn
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for these signs:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
