Shower tray repair in Tripwell without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and damage around the waste, in stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tripwell
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Tripwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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 reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tripwell, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What affects the price in Tripwell
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
