Has your shower tray been chipped? Need an expert repair? Let us handle the stress of fixing your shower tray chip quickly and professionally so you can get back to your routine.

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 Leeds. Call now for a free quote and more details.

Our Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repairs in Leeds

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 the surface of a shower tray has been damaged beyond repair, such as with many chips, scratches, or an overall deteriorated surface, we may recommend resurfacing the entire shower tray. This process takes longer than a chip repair, but we still complete it within one visit. After a shower tray resurfacing, your shower will look like new again. Any damage, such as cracks and holes, will be filled in as part of the procedure.

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.

Our repairs differ from DIY Repair Kits because we use only professional grade materials, sourced from specialised commercial suppliers. With years of experience in the hard surface repair industry, we ensure every repair is long-lasting and expertly completed. DIY Repair Kits offer lower quality materials that aren’t as durable, and their tinters are hard to match for a precise colour. Trust the professionals for your hard surface repairs!

Sink Chip Repair Procedure step by step:

1. Our technicians will evaluate the damage and offer you a free quote for the repair.

2. We begin by applying a layer of our specialised bonder to the shower tray to start the repair process.

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

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

5. Next, our technician will colour match the enamel paint to your shower tray’s surface and carefully spray it on with 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!

Shower Tray Chip Repair Leeds

Can a shower tray chip repair be completely invisible?

Cracked shower tray repair service Leeds

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 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 Leeds 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 Leeds. 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.

How long does it 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 had a small chip in my shower tray and you were able to repair it so expertly that I can't even tell where the chip was now! My shower tray looks brand new again! I'm so pleased with my repair.
JK - Leeds, West-Yorkshire
We couldn’t believe it when our plumber chipped our brand new shower tray with his tools. We thought about replacing it, but he suggested trying a chip repair. I’m so glad we went with that option! The repair was done expertly, and I can’t even tell where the chip was. We’re thrilled with the result, and it was definitely quicker than having the whole tray replaced.
GT - Leeds, West-Yorkshire
The chip in my shower tray had turned brown and looked terrible. Your repair made it look as good as new! The technician said it was important we didn’t wait, as the chip was getting damp.
