Shower Tray Repair in Pontneddfechan
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing at your home in Pontneddfechan, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
About our shower tray repair in Pontneddfechan
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Your questions about shower tray repair in Pontneddfechan
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Pontneddfechan
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips caused during fitting
- A cracked shower tray
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
