How we handle shower tray repair in Groes-faen
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Groes-faen questions
Are there extra charges for Groes-faen?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Rhondda Cynon Taff.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Groes-faen
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Groes-faen use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
