Shower tray repair in Penllergaer, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips on the edges and damage from a refit or building work.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Penllergaer: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, 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 it’s worth repairing early.
Repairing versus replacing in Penllergaer
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

What we’re called out for in Penllergaer
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What affects the price in Penllergaer
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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 to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
