What affects the price in George Nympton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
George Nympton questions
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in George Nympton
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in George Nympton
If you manage property in George Nympton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
On the day, 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 clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price.
