Repair or replace in Maypole?
A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Maypole. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Maypole. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Maypole get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common problems we fix in Maypole
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
Questions to ask before you book

Your questions about shower tray repair in Maypole
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the day after.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Maypole
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
If you manage property in Maypole, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
