Your questions about shower tray repair in Pentre Dwr
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you work in Pentre Dwr?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Pentre Dwr from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- 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
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
