Shower tray repair in Wenvoe without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Questions from Wenvoe
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Wenvoe
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wenvoe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wenvoe
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
