Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we handle shower tray repair in May Bank
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need shower tray repair in May Bank

- A tray that flexes
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

Repairing versus replacing in May Bank
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for May Bank. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Your questions about shower tray repair in May Bank
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you cover May Bank?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to May Bank from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
