Choosing a repair company

How we handle shower tray repair in Risca East

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and a cracked shower tray.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

Common questions in Risca East

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
