Shower tray repair in Ystradgynlais, done in place
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about cracks running from the waste and chipped corners or rims.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Ystradgynlais: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the day after.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
