Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Shower tray repair in Cefn Mawr, done in place
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we are called out for in Cefn Mawr

- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cefn Mawr use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
