Shower tray repair in Y Graig, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and chips on the edges.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Y Graig. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Y Graig: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Advice
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
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.
