Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Y Gurnos
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work in Y Gurnos?
We do. We send a technician to Y Gurnos for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SA9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Y Gurnos
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Y Gurnos
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your photos

What we are called out for in Y Gurnos
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
