One Piece Fiberglass Shower-tubs

I have a customer with a one piece fiberglass shower tub where the faucet has come loose. My only access to correct the problem is to cut into the shower wall. I was hoping to find a patch/plate to cover the hole ( sorta like a large escutcheon) but haven't been able to find one. Anybody have any ideas how to deal with this? TIA

yes there is, go to a plumbing supply house and ask for a remodeling plate for shower valves.

Try to send these jobs overseas!!
