What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Rhostyllen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Rhostyllen, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Shower tray repair at your home in Rhostyllen
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole, across stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Rhostyllen questions
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Rhostyllen and the rest of Wrexham. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Rhostyllen.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Common problems we fix in Rhostyllen
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rhostyllen
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Repair or replace in Rhostyllen?
A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
