Shower tray repair in Glan-llyn without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, in acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Glan-llyn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
