Repairing versus replacing in Pen-y-lan
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What we’re called out for in Pen-y-lan
Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
