Shower tray repair in Cwm, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips on the edges.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Cwm: your questions answered

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cwm.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Cwm?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Cwm and the rest of Blaenau Gwent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 then the old filler has to be removed 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 photos.

When to call us in Cwm

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, normally along the edges or by the waste.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What affects the price in Cwm

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Cwm. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cwm. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

For a price in Cwm, photos 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.
