Should you replace it?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What we are called out for in Pillgwenlly
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A tray that flexes
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price

If you manage property in Pillgwenlly, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Pillgwenlly, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
