- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Tan-y-Bwlch
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips caused during fitting

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Tan-y-Bwlch
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
