Shower tray repair in Y Ffôr, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, in enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

FAQs for Y Ffôr
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What we’re called out for in Y Ffôr
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches from cleaning or grit

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking waste fittings

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Other services in Y Ffôr
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
