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.

When you find a chip in your shower tray, it is usually due to something impacting the tray, such as something falling on it or bashing it. Shower trays are typically made from acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin. This material is lightweight and easy to shape, but it’s also brittle. This means that sharp or hard impacts can cause it to chip or crack. Once the surface is cracked or chipped, it’s crucial to have it repaired immediately to prevent the damage from worsening. We are here to help you in Nantwich with your shower tray chip repair. Call now for more information and a free quote.

Our Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repairs in Nantwich

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.

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.

Matching the new enamel to your shower tray’s existing colour is a vital step in chip repair. Our technicians carefully blend enamel paint with special tinters until it matches your shower tray’s exact shade. Even though most trays are white, different factors like age, usage, and discolouration over time will change the shade. Standard white enamel paint won’t work for repairs, as it will not match your tray’s specific colour.

When it comes to hard surface repairs, the materials we use are of professional grade and sourced from specialised commercial traders. This ensures that your repair will last and be expertly done every time. DIY Repair Kits, however, often use average quality materials that won’t stand the test of time, and their tinters make colour matching difficult. For reliable repairs, we recommend leaving it to the professionals!

Our step-by-step procedure for sink chip repairs:

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

2. To begin your repair, we'll apply 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. Our technician will then colour match the enamel paint to your shower tray and spray it evenly with a fine spray gun.

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

7. Your shower tray is good to go now! Ta da!

Shower Tray Chip Repair Nantwich

Will a shower tray chip repair be invisible?

Shower tray surface repair in Nantwich

Following a shower tray chip repair, the original damage should be virtually unnoticeable under normal use. Yet, if you shine a torch and inspect closely, you may still detect the repair. This is the best possible repair standard. For a perfectly invisible repair, resurfacing the entire shower tray would be ideal.

We take great pride in our repairs, ensuring they last for years. We want to make sure you're completely satisfied with your repair. With many years of experience in Nantwich, we’ve earned a loyal customer base who continues to recommend us. A key part of our repair process is achieving a perfect colour match, something we’ve perfected here at Surface Doctor Nantwich. Choosing a DIY Repair Kit is not recommended, as the repair quality will be far lower than what we provide. These kits only last a few months at best, and the colour match is often difficult to achieve, leading to potential discolouration. When you choose us, you won’t have to worry about these issues. We manage the entire repair process, leaving you with a flawless finish.

What’s the estimated time for this process?

A small chip repair will only take about 1-2 hours to complete. For more chips or damage, it could take up to 3 hours. If you're having a shower tray resurfacing, this will take about 4-5 hours to complete.

I needed a shower tray chip repair and couldn’t be happier with the choice of Surface Doctor Nantwich. The service was highly professional from the initial call right through to the repair completion. I also received valuable aftercare advice that I plan to follow! Thanks for the excellent service.
HN - Nantwich, Cheshire
I had a small chip in my shower tray, but after your expert repair, I can't even tell where it was! My shower tray looks brand new again! I’m so happy with the results.
JK - Nantwich, Cheshire
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 - Nantwich, Cheshire
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.
