How we handle shower tray repair in East Aberthaw
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 acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and a tray that flexes.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
When to call us in East Aberthaw
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repairs by material
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.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for East Aberthaw
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
