Shower trays are available in various shapes and materials, each with its own characteristics. Acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass are the most commonly used materials for shower trays. Over time, exposure to pressure, impact, and chemicals can lead to damage, especially if installation was not done correctly. Addressing damage as soon as possible ensures it doesn’t escalate into a bigger problem. A full replacement isn’t necessary—I can restore your shower tray in just a few hours, saving you time and money. For your confidence, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all shower tray repairs. For trays needing resurfacing, I offer this service too—though it takes a bit longer than a chip repair, the results will make your tray look brand new. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months, and I'm fully insured. Resurfacing or repairing your shower tray is an eco-conscious solution that extends its lifespan.
Most people don’t realize, but shower trays come in a variety of white shades. Manufacturers use various materials to create shower trays, and over time, factors like sunlight and cleaning products can alter their shade. Getting the shade right is one of the most vital steps in a successful shower tray repair. To achieve a perfect match, I use specialized tinters to mix the right white shade on-site. With years of experience, I have mastered the art of seamless shower tray color matching. While we don’t guarantee an invisible repair, it will blend in so well that you won’t see it during normal use.
I only use the highest quality professional-grade materials available to ensure that all of my repairs are lasting. I understand the appeal of DIY repair kits, but their low-quality materials mean the repair is unlikely to last. A DIY repair may not stick properly, and the colour will rarely match the original surface. A common complaint with DIY kits is that the repair turns yellow over time. No one wants to waste time and money on a repair that doesn’t last. I use high-quality materials to guarantee a long-lasting, non-discoloring repair. To give you confidence in my work, I provide a full 12-month guarantee.
The first step for a shower tray repair is to apply a special bonder to the area and then fill in the damage. To enhance durability, I apply an additional layer of bonding agent. Then I will colour match a paint to your shower tray by eye and spray this over the repair using a fine spray gun. This ensures the repair blends in as seamlessly as possible.
The most important thing to ascertain with a shower tray repair is how bad the damage is. For isolated damage, like a couple of chips or surface marks, a quick spot repair is ideal. A shower tray with multiple chips or surface damage is best restored through full resurfacing. In cases where the damage is structural or has gone through the tray, we need to determine if it can be strengthened before repair. If reinforcement isn’t a viable option, we typically recommend replacement instead of repair.
1. Send me pictures of the damage, and I will evaluate it and give you a free quote.
2. I start by cleaning the affected area and applying a specialized bonder before filling in the damage. 3. I'll then fill in any holes, chips, cracks, etc. 4. For maximum adhesion, a second layer of bonder will be applied. 5. Using my expertise, I will mix the perfect shade and apply it evenly with a fine mist sprayer. 6. Once the repair is done, let it cure for a day before resuming normal use. 7. Use your shower tray again as normal! A brand new looking shower tray without any of the hassle of replacing it.
On average, shower tray repairs are completed in 1-2 hours. For more significant damage or resurfacing, the process takes longer, but I strive to complete everything in one visit. Once I complete the repair, you'll be able to use your shower tray again 24 hours later. Choosing repair over replacement avoids unnecessary demolition and costs while being much faster.
The standard I always aim for is a shower tray repair that is not noticeable with normal usage. With shower trays, it can be easy to see marks and imperfections on them, especially if you have a light or window right next to the shower tray. I don’t make false promises about 100% invisibility—any company that does should be approached with caution.
I only use the best quality professional-grade materials. Using cheaper materials results in poor repairs, which is why I always opt for quality. Low-quality materials can’t produce a long-lasting, seamless repair. The number of repeat clients and referrals I receive speaks to the quality of my work.
If you think you can do your repair with a DIY Repair Kit instead, then you're welcome to try this out. Once the DIY kit fails, I’ll be available to do the job right. DIY kits lack the professional-grade materials and expert colour-matching that I provide. Many DIY repair kit users report that the fix falls off or discolours within months. You won’t have to worry about peeling, cracking, or fading with my work. If DIY kits were truly effective, there wouldn’t be a need for professional repair services.
How durable is a shower tray repair?
A properly done shower tray repair will hold up for the lifetime of the tray. I don't put a time limit on our repairs, but I do provide a 12-month warranty with all of our repairs. For cases where the damage is too extensive or affects the structure, a replacement may be the better option. You can still choose to repair it, but in such cases, I cannot provide a guarantee.
