Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Shower tray repair in Girlington without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and staining and dullness across the tray, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Girlington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bradford and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we’re called out for in Girlington

Customers usually contact us about:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Girlington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Girlington: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Girlington?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BD8 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
