Shower trays come in all different shapes and sizes and are made out of different materials. 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. If damage occurs, acting quickly can prevent the issue from worsening. A full replacement isn’t necessary—I can restore your shower tray in just a few hours, saving you time and money. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months unless otherwise stated. Shower tray resurfacing is an option if needed; while it takes longer than a simple chip repair, the results are stunning, and you can use it again the next day. I stand by my work with a 12-month guarantee and full insurance coverage. 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. The material, manufacturer, and exposure to elements like sunlight and chemicals can all impact a shower tray’s color. For a seamless repair, precise color matching is essential to blend with your existing shower tray. I do this using special tinters on the day to make up a white colour that matches from scratch. With years of experience, I have mastered the art of seamless shower tray color matching. Certain chip locations make it difficult to achieve a fully invisible repair, but in regular use, it won’t be noticeable.
To guarantee durability, I use only top-quality professional-grade materials in all my repairs. DIY repair kits are becoming more common, but they don’t provide the durability needed for a long-lasting fix. A DIY repair may not stick properly, and the colour will rarely match the original surface. DIY repairs frequently discolor after just a few months, making the problem even worse. That's the last thing you need after spending the time and money doing it. With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. I also offer a 12-month guarantee for your peace of mind.
To start the shower tray repair, I first apply a strong bonding agent and fill in the damaged section. A second coat of bonder is applied to ensure the repair holds strong. Once the area is prepped, I custom-mix a paint to match your shower tray and apply it using a fine spray gun. This process allows the repair to integrate smoothly with the rest of the shower tray.
Assessing the extent of the damage is the first and most crucial step in shower tray repair. If the damage is minimal, such as light scratches or a few chips, a spot repair will suffice. If the whole surface has been damaged or there are more than just a few chips, we would ideally resurface your shower tray to make sure it looks new again. 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. To begin the repair, I will cleanse the area and apply a strong bonding layer to ensure durability. 3. Next, I will fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the shower tray. 4. I then apply another layer of bonding agent to ensure long-lasting results. 5. Once the repair is prepped, I will match the color and blend it seamlessly with a fine spray. 6. Allow 24 hours for the repair to fully cure before using your shower tray again. 7. Once cured, your shower tray will look brand new and be ready for regular use!
Typically, shower tray repairs are completed within 1-2 hours. If resurfacing is needed, it can take a bit longer, but my goal is to finish the repair in one trip. You can safely use your shower tray again in just 24 hours after the repair. A repair is not only more affordable than replacement, but it’s also significantly quicker!
Each repair is done with precision so that it won’t stand out during normal use. 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. A completely invisible repair isn’t always possible, and I’d advise skepticism toward any company that guarantees it.
Every repair I complete is made with industry-leading materials for durability. I refuse to cut corners by using low-cost, inferior materials. If you want a repair that lasts, the quality of materials makes all the difference. I have many very happy customers who continue to recommend me because they were so happy with their repairs.
Trying a DIY repair first is an option, but I’ll be here when you need professional help. When the DIY repair doesn’t work out, I’ll be happy to assist. DIY kits lack the professional-grade materials and expert colour-matching that I provide. Discolouration and peeling are common problems with DIY bath and shower tray repair kits. That won't happen with my repairs. If the DIY Repair Kits worked so well, then I wouldn't be in business anymore!
How long will a shower tray repair last?
A properly done shower tray repair will hold up for the lifetime of the tray. Every repair comes with a 12-month warranty, though repairs are designed to last much longer. Severe or structural damage might require a full replacement rather than a simple repair. If you still want to have it repaired, I can do this, but I won't offer a guarantee in this instance.
