Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Shower tray repair in Rumney, done in place
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and edge chips from dropped bottles.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Rumney and across Cardiff.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
When to call us in Rumney
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips on the edges
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A crack across the base

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Different materials, different repairs
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 trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What affects the price in Rumney
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rumney. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
