Shower tray repair in Llanwrtyd Wells, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. 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 is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Advice
What we are called out for in Llanwrtyd Wells
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.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95.
