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

For years, we’ve been repairing shower trays in and around Portobello, and you can count on receiving excellent service from us.

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.

Our Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repairs in Portobello

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 the surface of your shower tray is severely damaged, with many chips, scratches, or overall wear, we recommend resurfacing the entire tray. While this takes a little longer than a chip repair, we can still complete it in a single visit. After resurfacing, your shower tray will look brand new, and we'll fill in cracks and holes as part of 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!

The sink chip repair process, step by step:

1. We’ll inspect the damage and provide you with a no-obligation free quote for the repair.

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. Another layer of bonder is applied on top of 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. Allow 24 hours for your shower tray repair to dry and cure completely.

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

Shower Tray Chip Repair Portobello

Will a shower tray chip repair be invisible?

Professional shower tray repair service Portobello

When a chip in your shower tray is repaired, it shouldn't be noticeable during regular use. However, a close inspection with a flashlight may reveal the repair, as it is still a repair. This is the best achievable standard. If a completely invisible repair is required, resurfacing the whole tray is a better choice.

We pride ourselves on offering repairs that last for many years, and we are committed to ensuring you’re completely satisfied. Our reputation in Portobello is built on years of happy customers who continue to recommend our services. One key factor in our high-quality repairs is our ability to perfectly match the original surface, something we’ve perfected here at Surface Doctor Portobello. If you opt for a DIY Repair Kit, be prepared for subpar results. These kits can’t provide a repair that will last long, and they struggle with colour matching, often leading to discolouration. With our professional repair service, we take care of everything, giving you peace of mind and a job well done.

What’s the estimated time for this process?

A small chip repair usually takes 1-2 hours, while more extensive repairs may take up to 3 hours. If you're having your shower tray resurfaced, the process will take about 4-5 hours.

When I needed a shower tray chip repair, I’m so glad I picked Surface Doctor Portobello. The professionalism was evident from the first call until the repair was finished. They also provided me with great aftercare advice which I’ll be sure to follow! Thanks for your wonderful service.
HN - Portobello, City-of-Edinburgh
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 - Portobello, City-of-Edinburgh
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 - Portobello, City-of-Edinburgh
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.
