Shower tray repair in Cwm Gwyn without replacing anything
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cwm Gwyn. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Other services in Cwm Gwyn
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
FAQs for Cwm Gwyn
Which areas do you work in?
All of Swansea, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
