About our shower tray repair in Oldfield
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Oldfield and across Bradford.

Common questions in Oldfield
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
