Shower tray repair in Flaxpool, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What affects the price in Flaxpool

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Flaxpool, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Flaxpool: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do you cover Flaxpool?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Flaxpool and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Flaxpool?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Flaxpool

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Flaxpool customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. 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.

What we’re called out for in Flaxpool

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
