How we handle shower tray repair in Dunball
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the edges and a cracked shower tray.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunball
For anyone letting property in or around Dunball, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Other services in Dunball
Dunball: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Dunball?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dunball and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
