Any competent modder should be able to repair your traces as long as the damage is not too severe.  Probably 10-20 minutes work.

sounds like you have a splash on your board somewhere    take a close look might be east to fix     if you damaged the traces   as log as you didn't bypass any componentys the box should work fine   so i dout its the trace thats causeing the prob      proble a short somewhere
