Shower tray repair at your home in Sandness
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and a damaged area around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Sandness get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Sandness questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you work in Sandness?
We do. We send a technician to Sandness for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Sandness?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sandness use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
