Trusted shower tray repair in Mayland

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mayland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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 give you a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mayland

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Mayland, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Mayland

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Mayland?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
