How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Shower tray repair at your home in Congl-y-wal
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We’re often asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and scratches in the surface, in cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Do you need shower tray repair in Congl-y-wal?
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Common reasons people in Congl-y-wal contact us are:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
