Shower tray repair in Stromness, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Stromness
How much does shower tray repair cost in Stromness?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you cover the entire of the Orkney Islands?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Stromness
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- 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 whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
