Shower tray repair in St Fagans without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you’re dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from St Fagans

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CF5 postcode.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to St Fagans. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, 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.

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
