How we handle shower tray repair in Hafod
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Hafod
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Hafod
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
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 reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
