How we handle shower tray repair in Tŷ-llwyn
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are staining and dullness across the tray and damage around the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
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 can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
