Chipped your shower tray? Need a professional repair? Let us take the stress out of your shower tray chip repair by handling it swiftly and expertly so you can continue your day.
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 Essex. Call us now for more information and a free quote.
1. We’ll review the damage and provide a free, no-obligation quote for the repair.
2. The first step in your repair is applying a layer of our specialised bonder to the shower tray. 3. Next, we'll fill in the damage to restore the tray's uniform surface. 4. Next, we apply another layer of bonder on top of the filler to ensure a lasting repair. 5. Our technician will now colour match the enamel paint to the surface of your shower tray and spray this on using a fine spray gun. 6. Give your shower tray repair 24 hours to dry and fully cure. 7. Ta da! Your shower tray is ready to be used again!
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.
We pride ourselves on offering repairs that last for many years, and we are committed to ensuring you’re completely satisfied. Our reputation in Essex is built on years of happy customers who continue to recommend our services. One key factor in our high-quality repairs is our ability to perfectly match the original surface, something we’ve perfected here at Surface Doctor Essex. If you opt for a DIY Repair Kit, be prepared for subpar results. These kits can’t provide a repair that will last long, and they struggle with colour matching, often leading to discolouration. With our professional repair service, we take care of everything, giving you peace of mind and a job well done.
How much time does it take?
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.
