How we handle shower tray repair in Llangowryd
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can generally put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic alike.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Llangowryd questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Powys. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Repairing versus replacing in Llangowryd
Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What affects the price in Llangowryd
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Llangowryd
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
