How we handle shower tray repair in Graig Penllyn
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and damage around the waste, across enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Graig Penllyn. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Graig Penllyn
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
