How we handle shower tray repair in Hernston
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new bathroom and a crack across the base, in stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bridgend.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from Hernston
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF31 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hernston
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
