DIY vs professional shower tray repair Colne Tile and shower tray repair expert Colne

If you’ve chipped your shower tray and need a repair, let us take care of it quickly and expertly, so you can get back to your day with no stress.

Finding a chip in your shower tray is often due to something impacting the tray, like a heavy object falling on it or hitting it. Shower trays are usually made from acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin. While these materials are light and easy to shape, they’re brittle, meaning they can crack or chip easily when impacted. It’s important to repair any chips or cracks promptly to avoid further damage. We’re ready to assist with your shower tray chip repair in Colne. Call now for a free quote and more details.

For years, we’ve been repairing shower trays in and around Colne, and you can count on receiving excellent service from us.

If you replace your shower tray, it can be a costly and lengthy process. However, we can repair it in a fraction of the time, helping you save time and money.

Colne Shower Tray Chip Repair Expert Process

Shower trays come in various materials and textures, with many being made of acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, a combination known for its durability. The downside is that these materials can be prone to damage due to their hard but brittle surface. Scratches are also common and can trap moisture, leading to mildew and mould. Therefore, it’s important to repair chips, scratches, and cracks quickly to restore the surface’s waterproof properties.

When a shower tray is damaged beyond repair, with numerous chips, scratches, or significant wear, we will recommend resurfacing the entire tray. This procedure takes a bit longer than a chip repair but can still be completed in one visit. Resurfacing restores your shower tray to a brand-new condition, and we’ll fill in cracks and holes during the process.

Repairing chips in a shower tray requires precise colour matching of the new enamel paint to your existing tray. Our skilled technicians use special tinters to blend the enamel until it matches the exact shade of your tray. Although most trays are white, there are many variations of white, and the age, usage, and discolouration of the tray will all impact the shade. This is why standard white enamel paint won’t work for repairs, as it won’t match the colour of your shower tray.

The key difference between our repairs and DIY Repair Kits is the quality of materials. We use professional grade materials from trusted commercial traders, ensuring a lasting and expert repair every time. DIY Repair Kits, however, contain lower quality materials that will not last. The provided tinters are challenging to match accurately. For the best results, we recommend leaving your hard surface repairs to the professionals!

Our step-by-step procedure for sink chip repairs:

1. Our team will assess the damage and give you a free quote for the repair.

2. To start the repair, a layer of our specialised bonder will be applied to the shower tray.

3. Afterward, we will fill in the damage to create a seamless, uniform surface.

4. We then apply another layer of bonder over the filler.

5. The enamel paint will now be colour matched to your shower tray’s surface and sprayed on with precision using a fine spray gun.

6. Allow the repair to dry and fully cure on your shower tray for the next 24 hours.

7. Your shower tray is good to go now! Ta da!

Colne Shower Tray Chip Repair Services

Will the repair of a shower tray chip be undetectable?

Shower tray repair near me Colne

A shower tray chip repair, once completed, should not be noticeable with normal use. However, if you shine a light and closely inspect it, you might see some evidence of the repair. This is the best repair standard available. If you're looking for a truly invisible repair, resurfacing the whole shower tray might be a better solution.

Our repairs last for many years, and we take great pride in the work we do, ensuring that you’re completely satisfied. We’ve been serving Colne for many years and have a long list of happy customers who recommend us regularly. A key element of our high-quality repairs is achieving the perfect colour match to the original surface, something we have perfected at Surface Doctor Colne. Opting for a DIY Repair Kit won’t provide you with the same level of quality. These kits often lead to short-term repairs that discolour over time, and colour matching is difficult. With our professional service, you don’t need to worry about any of this—we’ll handle the entire repair process for you.

How long will this repair take?

Repairing a small chip generally takes about 1-2 hours, while more significant damage may take up to 3 hours. Shower tray resurfacing, however, typically requires 4-5 hours to complete.

I needed a shower tray chip repair and couldn’t be happier with the choice of Surface Doctor Colne. The service was highly professional from the initial call right through to the repair completion. I also received valuable aftercare advice that I plan to follow! Thanks for the excellent service.
HN - Colne, Lancashire
After a small chip appeared in my shower tray, you repaired it so expertly that I can’t even find where the chip was anymore! My shower tray looks as good as new! I’m really happy with the repair.
JK - Colne, Lancashire
We were so frustrated when our plumber chipped our brand new shower tray by resting his metal tools in it. We wanted him to replace it, but he insisted on giving the chip repair a try. I have to say, I was amazed by the repair—there’s no sign of where the damage was! I’m genuinely impressed with the work and the whole process. It was definitely faster than replacing the entire tray.
GT - Colne, Lancashire
I had a chip in my shower tray that was turning brown and looked awful. After your repair, the tray looks as good as new! The technician pointed out the chip was getting damp, so it was great we didn’t delay the repair any longer.
