Skewen: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Skewen?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What we’re called out for in Skewen
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips on the edges
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
