Shower tray repair in Gilfachreda, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
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 can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Gilfachreda: your questions answered
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work in Gilfachreda?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gilfachreda for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
