Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Do you need shower tray repair in Winch Wen?
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Winch Wen questions
Are there extra charges for Winch Wen?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What areas do you cover?
All of Swansea, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
