Shower tray repair in Cardiff without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When to call us in Cardiff

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Cardiff, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cardiff questions

Do you work in Cardiff?

We do. We send a technician to Cardiff for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
