Shower tray repair in Pen-yr-englyn, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are staining and dullness across the tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What else we do in Pen-yr-englyn
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pen-yr-englyn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
