How we handle shower tray repair in Rhostryfan
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Rhostryfan
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Rhostryfan: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
