Shower tray repair in Hollybush, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and edge chips from dropped bottles, across stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Torfaen.

When to call us in Hollybush
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips on the edges
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before you book
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What else we do in Hollybush
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Hollybush
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
