How we handle shower tray repair in Maesglas
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Maesglas

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Maesglas questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What else we do in Maesglas
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
