Shower tray repair in Fron, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Our repair technicians cover all of the LL16 postcode area. That includes homes on Vale Road, Bull Lane and Crown Lane and the roads around them.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Questions from Fron
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Fron?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fron for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in Fron?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs 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 photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
