Repairing versus replacing in Llanidloes
Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Shower tray repair in Llanidloes without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most often call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and edge chips from dropped bottles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Llanidloes
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Llanidloes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
