Shower tray repair at your home in Colwinston
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 so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chipped corners or rims, on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What else we do in Colwinston
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Questions from Colwinston
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of the Vale of Glamorgan. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Colwinston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colwinston
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
