How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Questions from Pontywaun
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the entire of Caerphilly?
Everywhere in the UK, Pontywaun included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
When to call us in Pontywaun
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Pontywaun

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
