How we handle shower tray repair in Brae

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Brae
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. 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.

FAQs for Brae
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of the Shetland Islands?
We cover the entire UK, including Brae and the rest of the Shetland Islands. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you work in Brae?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Brae from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
