Shower tray repair in Gwyddgrug without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include scratches in the surface and a dull, stained or worn surface, in cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Gwyddgrug

How to compare quotes

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gwyddgrug. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Gwyddgrug

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you cover Gwyddgrug?

We do. We send a technician to Gwyddgrug for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Are there extra charges for Gwyddgrug?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
