Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Do you need shower tray repair in Garndiffaith?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Repairing versus replacing in Garndiffaith
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
