DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Shower tray repair in Dousland, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Dousland questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Dousland?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When we’d advise against a repair

- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common problems we fix in Dousland
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
- Movement when you stand on it
What to look for in a quote

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
