Shower tray repair in Hirwaun, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and scuffs and light scratches.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Hirwaun
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Movement when you stand on it
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hirwaun. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Questions from Hirwaun
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

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.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
