About our shower tray repair in Melin-cwrt
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and scuffs and light scratches, we can generally put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Melin-cwrt and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Melin-cwrt: your questions answered
Do you work in Melin-cwrt?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Melin-cwrt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Melin-cwrt. Prices don’t change with location.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
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:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Melin-cwrt
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Melin-cwrt?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Do you need shower tray repair in Melin-cwrt?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
