For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sowerby Bridge use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
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.
Sowerby Bridge questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, 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.
When to call us in Sowerby Bridge
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, normally along the edges or by the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
