Shower tray repair at your home in Westowe
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and a damaged area around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Questions from Westowe
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Westowe and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What we are called out for in Westowe
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Comparing quotes
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Repair or replace in Westowe?
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
