Shower tray repair in Candy Mill without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. We work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Lanarkshire.

Landlord and trade work in Candy Mill
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Candy Mill questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Candy Mill
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
