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.
When a chip appears in your shower tray, it’s typically caused by something impacting the tray, like an object falling or striking it. Most shower trays are made of acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, which is lightweight and easy to shape, but also brittle. This means it’s vulnerable to chipping or cracking from sharp impacts. Once damaged, it’s essential to repair the tray immediately to prevent further issues. We’re available to help you in Gateshead with your shower tray chip repair. Call today for more details and a free quote.
1. We’ll review the damage and provide a free, no-obligation quote for the repair.
2. We start your repair by applying a layer of our specialised bonder to the shower tray. 3. We’ll proceed by filling in the damage to ensure the surface is uniform once again. 4. Another layer of bonder is applied on top of 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. Let the repair on your shower tray fully cure and dry over the next 24 hours. 7. Ta da! Your shower tray is ready to be used again!
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 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 Gateshead 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 Gateshead. 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?
Small chip repairs typically take about 1-2 hours. More extensive damage may take up to 3 hours. If you're opting for shower tray resurfacing, this will take around 4-5 hours to finish.
