About our shower tray repair in Llanrumney
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and a crack across the base.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Llanrumney
Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
Llanrumney questions
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Llanrumney
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanrumney
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
