Questions from Tan-y-foel
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tan-y-foel. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
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 can be filled and matched.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
