Covering Embo
Embo is about 23 miles north of Nairn, in Highland. Anywhere in IV25, we come to you. We cover 253 places across Highland.
Our visits in IV25 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. Jobs here include addresses on Hall Street, Terrace Street and Front Street and the roads around them. We also travel to Hilton (1 mile south-west), Skelbo Muir (2 miles north-west), Littleferry (2 miles north), Dornoch (2 miles south-west) and Camore (3 miles south-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Tain (7 miles south), Brora (9 miles north-east) and Balintore (11 miles south).

Shower tray repair in Embo without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and chips caused during fitting, in acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What affects the price in Embo
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Embo, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Do you need shower tray repair in Embo?
Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches in the surface
Before booking anyone

- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place

- Acrylic
- Cast iron
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Embo use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
FAQs for Embo
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
