Shower tray repair in Cousland, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Cousland questions
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cousland.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Other services in Cousland
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
When to call us in Cousland
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Common reasons people in Cousland contact us include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Landlord and trade work in Cousland
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Cousland
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
