Has your shower tray been chipped? Need an expert repair? Let us handle the stress of fixing your shower tray chip quickly and professionally so you can get back to your routine.

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

Replacing your shower tray is a time-consuming and costly process, but with our expert repair service, we can get it fixed in no time, saving you time and money.

Expert Process for Shower Tray Chip Repair in Steyning

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.

For shower trays with extensive damage like multiple chips, scratches, or an overall deteriorated surface, we recommend resurfacing the whole tray. This takes a little more time than a simple chip repair, but we’ll complete the job in one visit. Once resurfaced, your shower tray will look brand new, and we will 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.

When it comes to hard surface repairs, the materials we use are of professional grade and sourced from specialised commercial traders. This ensures that your repair will last and be expertly done every time. DIY Repair Kits, however, often use average quality materials that won’t stand the test of time, and their tinters make colour matching difficult. For reliable repairs, we recommend leaving it to the professionals!

Step-by-step procedure for sink chip repair:

1. Our team will assess the damage and give you a free quote for the repair.

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

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

4. We then apply another layer of bonder over the filler.

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 the repair to dry and fully cure on your shower tray for the next 24 hours.

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

Will the repair of a shower tray chip be undetectable?

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.

Our repairs will last for many years, and we take great pride in our work, ensuring you are completely satisfied with your repair. We’ve been serving Steyning for many years and have numerous happy customers who continue to recommend us regularly. One of the most important factors in creating a high-quality repair is achieving a perfect colour match to the original surface, which is something we have mastered at Surface Doctor Steyning. If you choose to try out a DIY Repair Kit, be warned that the repair quality won’t come close to what we can achieve. DIY kits can only provide repairs that may last a few months and are often hard to colour match, which can lead to discolouration. With a professional repair, you won’t need to worry about any of this. We handle the repair process, so you can relax and enjoy the results.

How long will this repair take?

Repairing a small chip generally takes about 1-2 hours, while more significant damage may take up to 3 hours. Shower tray resurfacing, however, typically requires 4-5 hours to complete.

I needed a shower tray chip repair and I'm so glad I chose Surface Doctor Steyning to do it. Very professional service from the moment I called up through to my shower tray being repaired. I was also given aftercare advice which I will definitely stick to! Thank you for the great service.
HN - Steyning, West-Sussex
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 - Steyning, West-Sussex
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 - Steyning, West-Sussex
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.
