Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penrhos as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Penrhos
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we work on
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Penrhos questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you need shower tray repair in Penrhos?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penrhos. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
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 will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- 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
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
