Shower tray repair in Tai'r-heol, done in place
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you need shower tray repair in Tai'r-heol?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Tai'r-heol
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Tai'r-heol?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
