About our shower tray repair in Minehead

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and scratches in the surface, we can generally put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in Minehead

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Minehead

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What affects the price in Minehead

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Minehead clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

What we are called out for in Minehead

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

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
