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.

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 Northfleet. Call now for a free quote and more info.

If you replace your shower tray, it can be a costly and lengthy process. However, we can repair it in a fraction of the time, helping you save time and money.

Northfleet's Expert Process for Repairing Shower Tray Chips

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.

If your shower tray has extensive damage, including chips, scratches, or deterioration, we will suggest resurfacing the entire surface. While this procedure takes longer than a chip repair, we ensure it’s done in one visit. After resurfacing, your shower tray will look as good as new, with any cracks or holes filled as part of the service.

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.

The difference between our repairs and DIY Repair Kits is that all of the materials we use are professional grade materials, only available from specialised commercial traders. After years of experience in the hard surface repair industry, we’ve sourced the highest quality materials, ensuring a lasting and expert repair every time. DIY Repair Kits, on the other hand, use average quality materials that won’t last. The tinters provided are difficult to get an accurate colour match with. We highly recommend leaving your hard surface repair needs to the professionals!

How we repair your sink chip, step by step:

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

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

3. The damage will then be filled in to create a smooth, even surface.

4. After the filler, we apply an additional layer of bonder for a strong bond.

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. Let your shower tray repair dry and fully cure over the next 24 hours.

7. Ta da! Your shower tray is all set to be used again!

Is it possible for a shower tray chip repair to be invisible?

Before and after shower tray repair Northfleet

After a shower tray chip repair, the original damage should generally be undetectable during regular use. But if you shine a flashlight and scrutinize the area, you might still spot the repair. This represents the highest standard of repair. For an invisible repair, resurfacing the entire shower tray would be your best 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 Northfleet 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 Northfleet. 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.

What is the typical duration for this?

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.

HN - Northfleet, Kent
There was a small chip in my shower tray, but after your expert repair, it’s impossible to see where it was! My shower tray looks like new again! I’m really pleased with the repair.
JK - Northfleet, Kent
There’s nothing worse than your plumber chipping your brand new shower tray by resting his tools on it, but unfortunately, it happened to us. We wanted a replacement, but he suggested a chip repair instead. I was so impressed with the result that I can’t even see where the damage was! The repair process was excellent, and it was definitely faster than replacing the tray.
GT - Northfleet, Kent
My shower tray had a nasty chip that was turning brown, but you did an excellent repair and made it look brand new again. The technician mentioned the chip was becoming damp, so it was great we didn’t wait any longer to repair it.
