DIY kit or professional repair?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.
Shower tray repair at your home in Veensgarth
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Veensgarth and across the Shetland Islands.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Veensgarth: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Are there extra charges for Veensgarth?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What affects the price in Veensgarth
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Veensgarth
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book
- Same prices wherever you are

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Veensgarth
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
