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.

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

We have been repairing shower trays for many years in and around Shipley, so you can be sure you'll receive first-class 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.

Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repair in Shipley

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 a shower tray is damaged beyond repair, with numerous chips, scratches, or significant wear, we will recommend resurfacing the entire tray. This procedure takes a bit longer than a chip repair but can still be completed in one visit. Resurfacing restores your shower tray to a brand-new condition, and we’ll fill in cracks and holes during the process.

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.

Unlike DIY Repair Kits, we use only top-quality, professional-grade materials sourced from commercial suppliers. With years of experience in the hard surface repair industry, we know how to ensure each repair is durable and expertly done. DIY Repair Kits use basic materials that won’t last, and their tinters can’t guarantee a precise colour match. Leave your hard surface repairs to the experts!

The sink chip repair process, step by step:

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

2. To start the repair, a layer of our specialised bonder will be applied to the shower tray.

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

4. Next, we apply another layer of bonder on top of the filler to ensure a lasting repair.

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. Give your shower tray repair 24 hours to dry and fully cure.

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

Will the repair of a shower tray chip be undetectable?

Fast and efficient shower tray fix Shipley

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.

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 Shipley, 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 Shipley. 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.

How long will this repair take?

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.

After a small chip appeared in my shower tray, you repaired it so expertly that I can’t even find where the chip was anymore! My shower tray looks as good as new! I’m really happy with the repair.
JK - Shipley, West-Yorkshire
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 - Shipley, West-Yorkshire
I had a very ugly chip in my shower tray which was turning a bit brown. You did a really good repair on it and totally made my shower tray look nice and new again. The technician said the chip was getting very damp, so it was good we didn't leave it any longer to get repaired.
