Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Landlord and trade work in Rhos-on-Sea

Rhos-on-Sea questions
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

- A damaged area around the waste

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rhos-on-Sea. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
