- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Questions from Y Trallwng
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Y Trallwng
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Y Trallwng. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
