FAQs for Clestrain
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Shower tray repair in Clestrain without replacing anything

Clestrain and the surrounding area
Clestrain is about 9 miles west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. We visit homes and businesses in Clestrain, so there’s no workshop to go to. Clestrain is one of 51 places in the Orkney Islands we cover.
Our visits in KW17 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. If you are just outside Clestrain, we cover Midland (2 miles south-east), Orphir (2 miles east), Clouston (3 miles north), Kirbister (3 miles east) and Stenness (3 miles north). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Local landmarks in Clestrain
Not far away are Loch of Kirbister and Brodgar RSPB Reserve.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Clestrain. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need shower tray repair in Clestrain?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
