Shower tray repair at your home in Mountain Ash West
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and damage around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mountain Ash West and across Rhondda Cynon Taff.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Mountain Ash West: your questions answered
Do you come to Mountain Ash West?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Mountain Ash West from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Mountain Ash West?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Rhondda Cynon Taff?
All of Rhondda Cynon Taff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
When to call us in Mountain Ash West
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.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mountain Ash West
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
