Chipped your shower tray? Need a professional repair? Let us take the stress out of your shower tray chip repair by handling it swiftly and expertly so you can continue your day.

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 Springburn. 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.

Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repair in Springburn

Shower trays come in a variety of materials and textures. Most are made from acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, which is a durable combination. However, these materials are prone to damage due to their hard yet brittle surface. The surface is also susceptible to scratches, which can collect moisture and attract mildew and mould. This is why it is crucial to repair chips, scratches, and cracks as soon as possible to restore the surface to its waterproof original 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.

One of the most important steps in the process of repairing chips to a shower tray is colour matching the new enamel paint to match your existing shower tray exactly. This skill takes a lot of experience to perfect, and our technicians achieve this by blending enamel paint with special tinters until it matches your shower tray perfectly. Even though most shower trays are white, there are many shades of white, and factors like the age of the tray, its usage, and any discolouration over time will all affect the shade of white. This is why using standard white enamel paint for repairs is not an option, as it won't match 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!

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. A second layer of bonder is applied over the filler to ensure proper adhesion.

5. The technician will now match the enamel paint to your shower tray's surface and apply it using a fine spray gun.

6. Allow 24 hours for your shower tray repair to dry and cure completely.

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

Expert Shower Tray Chip Repair in Springburn

Can a shower tray chip repair be completely invisible?

Shower tray chip repair in Springburn

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.

At Surface Doctor Springburn, we take great pride in our work and are committed to delivering long-lasting repairs that ensure your satisfaction. With many years of experience in Springburn, we’ve gained a strong reputation for excellent service and many loyal customers who recommend us. One crucial aspect of our high-standard repairs is achieving a perfect colour match to the original surface, something we’ve mastered over the years. If you’re considering a DIY Repair Kit, be aware that the repair you’ll get won’t come close to our professional standard. DIY kits are only capable of providing temporary repairs, and colour matching is difficult, leading to discolouration. With our professional repairs, you won’t have to worry about any of this—let us take care of it for you so you can relax.

How much time does it 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.

I was in need of a shower tray chip repair and am so happy I chose Surface Doctor Springburn. The service was professional from the start to finish, and I received helpful aftercare advice I will definitely use! Thank you for your amazing service.

You repaired a small chip in my shower tray so well that I can’t even tell where it was anymore! Now my shower tray looks brand new! I’m thrilled with the repair.
JK - Springburn, Glasgow-City
We couldn’t believe it when our plumber chipped our brand new shower tray with his tools. We thought about replacing it, but he suggested trying a chip repair. I’m so glad we went with that option! The repair was done expertly, and I can’t even tell where the chip was. We’re thrilled with the result, and it was definitely quicker than having the whole tray replaced.
GT - Springburn, Glasgow-City
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.
