Shower tray repair at your home in Gobowen
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and edge chips from dropped bottles, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Gobowen, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Gobowen
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover Gobowen?
We do. We send a technician to Gobowen for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Common problems we fix in Gobowen
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- How to look after the finish
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- 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
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
