About our shower tray repair in Penrhys
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks running from the waste and scuffs and light scratches.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
FAQs for Penrhys
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Penrhys?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Penrhys and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Landlord and trade work in Penrhys
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penrhys. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Penrhys, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Penrhys
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
