Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Rhydowen, Ceredigion
Shower tray repair in Rhydowen without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that flexes
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Shower tray repair at your home in Rhydowen
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches in the surface, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.

Repairing versus replacing in Rhydowen
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Rhydowen
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work in Rhydowen?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Rhydowen from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Common problems we fix in Rhydowen
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that flexes
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
