Shower trays come in a range of materials and textures, but acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin is one of the most common, offering durability. The issue with these materials is their tendency to be brittle, making them prone to chips and scratches. Such surface damage can trap moisture, promoting mildew and mould growth. That’s why it’s essential to repair any chips, scratches, or cracks promptly to keep the surface waterproof and in top condition.

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.

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!
