Shower tray repair in Killay without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with chips caused during fitting and scratches in the surface, we can help, on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Killay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently 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.

- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What else we do in Killay
Do you need shower tray repair in Killay?
Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Look out for these signs:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Killay
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Killay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Killay, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
