Shower tray repair in Resolven without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage from a refit or building work.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Resolven
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Resolven?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Resolven and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

We cover the entire UK, including Resolven and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What we’re called out for in Resolven
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What else we do in Resolven
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
