Fast and efficient shower tray fix East-Kilbride Shower tray chip repair in East-Kilbride

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.

A chip in your shower tray typically occurs when something impacts the tray, like a heavy object falling on it or striking it. Shower trays are most commonly made from acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, materials that are light, easy to shape, but also brittle. This means that hard impacts can cause chipping or cracking. It’s important to repair any damage immediately to avoid worsening the issue. We’re ready to help with your shower tray chip repair in East-Kilbride. Call us now for more information and a free quote.

Replacing your shower tray takes considerable time and money, but we can repair your shower tray quickly and affordably, saving you both time and money.

East-Kilbride 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.

For shower trays with extensive damage like multiple chips, scratches, or an overall deteriorated surface, we recommend resurfacing the whole tray. This takes a little more time than a simple chip repair, but we’ll complete the job in one visit. Once resurfaced, your shower tray will look brand new, and we will fill in cracks and holes during the process.

Colour matching is one of the most important steps in repairing chips to a shower tray. Our technicians blend enamel paint with special tinters to perfectly match your tray’s original shade. Since most shower trays are white, but there are many shades of white, factors such as the age of your tray, its use, and any discolouration over time will affect the colour. This is why you can’t use regular white enamel paint for repairs, as it won’t match your tray’s colour.

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!

Sink Chip Repair Procedure step by step:

1. We’ll inspect the damage and provide you with a no-obligation free quote for the repair.

2. To begin your repair, we'll apply a layer of our specialised bonder to the shower tray.

3. We'll then fill in the damage to create that uniform surface again.

4. Next, we apply another layer of bonder on top of the filler to ensure a lasting repair.

5. The technician will now match the enamel paint to your shower tray's surface and apply it using a fine spray gun.

6. Give your shower tray repair 24 hours to dry and fully cure.

7. Your shower tray is now ready to be used again! Ta da!

Expert Shower Tray Chip Repair in East-Kilbride

Is it possible for a shower tray chip repair to be invisible?

DIY vs professional shower tray repair East-Kilbride

When a chip in your shower tray is repaired, it shouldn't be noticeable during regular use. However, a close inspection with a flashlight may reveal the repair, as it is still a repair. This is the best achievable standard. If a completely invisible repair is required, resurfacing the whole tray is a better choice.

Our repairs will last for many years, and we take great pride in our work, ensuring you are completely satisfied with your repair. We’ve been serving East-Kilbride for many years and have numerous happy customers who continue to recommend us regularly. One of the most important factors in creating a high-quality repair is achieving a perfect colour match to the original surface, which is something we have mastered at Surface Doctor East-Kilbride. If you choose to try out a DIY Repair Kit, be warned that the repair quality won’t come close to what we can achieve. DIY kits can only provide repairs that may last a few months and are often hard to colour match, which can lead to discolouration. With a professional repair, you won’t need to worry about any of this. We handle the repair process, so you can relax and enjoy the results.

What is the typical duration for this?

For minor chip repairs, the job takes about 1-2 hours. If there’s more damage, it could take up to 3 hours. Resurfacing a shower tray takes around 4-5 hours to complete.

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 - East-Kilbride, South-Lanarkshire
There’s nothing worse than your plumber chipping your brand new shower tray by resting his tools on it, but unfortunately, it happened to us. We wanted a replacement, but he suggested a chip repair instead. I was so impressed with the result that I can’t even see where the damage was! The repair process was excellent, and it was definitely faster than replacing the tray.
GT - East-Kilbride, South-Lanarkshire
I had a very ugly chip in my shower tray which was turning a bit brown. You did a really good repair on it and totally made my shower tray look nice and new again. The technician said the chip was getting very damp, so it was good we didn't leave it any longer to get repaired.
