For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Somerford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Somerford, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
FAQs for Somerford
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Somerford?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Are there extra charges for Somerford?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base

- A tray that flexes
