Shower tray repair in Vassa, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste, in cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Vassa: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Vassa?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover the whole of the Shetland Islands?
All of the Shetland Islands, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Vassa
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Vassa, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Repairing versus replacing in Vassa
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Vassa. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us

When to call us in Vassa
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
