Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Witham Friary, Somerset

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Witham Friary
Are there extra charges for Witham Friary?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Witham Friary?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Witham Friary and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Witham Friary use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What else we do in Witham Friary
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Do you need shower tray repair in Witham Friary?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that flexes
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

- Whether a trained technician does the job

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- 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 photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
