Shower tray repair in Canonbie without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and a tray that flexes, across cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Common problems we fix in Canonbie
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Canonbie questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Canonbie.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
