Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Whelston, Flintshire
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing at your home in Whelston, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle shower tray repair in Whelston
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the waste and cracks running from the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Whelston questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
