Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Brynmill questions
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you cover Brynmill?
We do. Technicians travel to Brynmill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What else we do in Brynmill
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Brynmill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Brynmill
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
