Signs you need shower tray repair in Ystrad Aeron

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners or rims

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Ystrad Aeron

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Ystrad Aeron, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
