When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

FAQs for Ysgubor Newydd

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Ysgubor Newydd?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
