What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Shower tray repair in Waen-pentir, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and a damaged area around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Waen-pentir

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Waen-pentir?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Waen-pentir

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
