Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Shower tray repair in Braehoulland without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, in enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Braehoulland and across the Shetland Islands.

Where we work around Braehoulland
Braehoulland is about 28 miles north-west of Lerwick, in the Shetland Islands. We travel to homes and businesses in Braehoulland and nearby villages, so there is no workshop to go to. Braehoulland is one of 63 towns and villages in the Shetland Islands where we work.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place

Common problems we fix in Braehoulland
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your pictures

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better 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 you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
