About our shower tray repair in Wernffrwd

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Wernffrwd: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Repair or replace in Wernffrwd?

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wernffrwd. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
