Common questions in Coedycaerau
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How we handle shower tray repair in Coedycaerau
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Coedycaerau and across Newport.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Coedycaerau, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
When to call us in Coedycaerau
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
