Have you chipped your shower tray? Do you need an expert repair done on your shower tray? Let us take the stress out of your shower tray chip repair by getting it done quickly and expertly so you can get back on with your day.

A chip in your shower tray is usually the result of an impact, such as something falling onto it or bashing it. Shower trays are commonly made from acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, materials that are light and easy to shape but prone to brittleness. This makes them susceptible to chips or cracks from sharp impacts. Once the surface is damaged, it’s vital to repair it right away to prevent further damage. We are ready to assist you with your shower tray chip repair in Hackney. Call now for a free quote and more info.

The Professional Shower Tray Chip Repair Process in Hackney

Shower trays are made from various materials and textures, but acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin is a common and durable choice. Unfortunately, these materials are prone to damage due to their brittle nature. Scratches are also a concern, as they can collect moisture and foster the growth of mildew and mould. Promptly repairing any chips, scratches, or cracks helps maintain the waterproof integrity of the surface and prevents further damage.

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.

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 take a look at the damage and provide you with your free quote to repair it.

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. Another layer of bonder is applied on top of the filler.

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

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

7. And just like that, your shower tray is ready for use again!

Can a shower tray chip repair be seamless and invisible?

Tile and shower tray repair expert Hackney

When you have a chip in your shower tray and this gets repaired, the original damage should not be noticeable under normal usage. However, if you were to shine a torch over your shower tray and examine it closely, you may still see something. After all, it is a repair. This is the highest standard of repair achievable. If you require a completely invisible repair that is undetectable in any circumstances, resurfacing the entire shower tray would be the better option.

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 Hackney 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 Hackney. 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.

HN - Hackney, London
You repaired a small chip in my shower tray so well that I can’t even tell where it was anymore! Now my shower tray looks brand new! I’m thrilled with the repair.
JK - Hackney, London
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 - Hackney, London
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.
