Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
Landlords, agents and businesses in Galon Uchaf
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Merthyr Tydfil and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Galon Uchaf as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Galon Uchaf. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common questions in Galon Uchaf
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Galon Uchaf?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Galon Uchaf?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Galon Uchaf from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repairing versus replacing in Galon Uchaf
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Galon Uchaf, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
