Shower trays come in all different shapes and sizes and are made out of different materials. The most common types of shower trays are made from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass. Unfortunately, all of these materials are prone to damage caused by impacts, strong chemicals, and even too much pressure if they have not been installed correctly. When this happens, it's important to have the damage repaired straight away before it gets worse. Rather than replacing your shower tray, I can repair it in just a few hours, providing a cost-effective solution. For your confidence, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all shower tray repairs. 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. Every repair I do is covered by a 12-month warranty, and I am 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. Different manufacturers use different materials to produce their shower trays, and even things like exposure to sunlight and chemicals can affect the shade of white it is. One of the most important parts of doing a shower tray repair is to colour match the new paint for the repair exactly to your existing shower tray. By using advanced tinting techniques, I ensure the new paint blends flawlessly with your shower tray. Through extensive experience, I’ve developed the skill to create near-invisible repairs. Some repairs are more difficult to conceal due to their placement, but they will be virtually undetectable in daily use.
My repairs are built to last because I use the best professional-grade materials available. I understand the appeal of DIY repair kits, but their low-quality materials mean the repair is unlikely to last. The repair will fall off due to not being adhered properly, or the colour won't be matched properly. DIY repairs frequently discolor after just a few months, making the problem even worse. It’s frustrating to invest time and money in a repair only for it to deteriorate. With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. For extra peace of mind, I back my work with a 12-month guarantee.
The repair process begins with applying a specialized bonder to the damaged area before filling it. I will then apply another layer of bonder to it. After preparing the surface, I hand-match the colour and spray the repair with a precision spray gun. This guarantees a smooth, flawless finish that matches the rest of the shower tray.
The key factor in repairing a shower tray is determining the severity of the damage. For isolated damage, like a couple of chips or surface marks, a quick spot repair is ideal. For more extensive damage or multiple chips, resurfacing is the best way to restore the shower tray’s appearance. When the damage compromises the integrity of the shower tray, reinforcement must be considered before proceeding with repairs. If this is the case, we most likely won't recommend attempting to repair it as the repair may not last.
1. I will analyze the damage from images and send you a fixed-price quote for your repair.
2. When I arrive to do the repair, I will first clean the area and apply a layer of bonder to prep for the filler. 3. At this stage, I will meticulously fill all chips, cracks, and holes in the tray. 4. After filling the damage, I will apply an additional bonder layer for extra strength. 5. Next, I'll colour match the paint to your shower tray and spray it on with a fine spray gun. 6. Allow 24 hours for the repair to fully cure before using your shower tray again. 7. Enjoy your refreshed shower tray without the cost or hassle of a full replacement!
Most of our shower tray repairs will take about 1-2 hours. If resurfacing is needed, it can take a bit longer, but my goal is to finish the repair in one trip. Once I complete the repair, you'll be able to use your shower tray again 24 hours later. Compared to replacing the entire shower tray, this method is quicker and far more cost-effective!
My goal is to ensure that the repair is practically invisible during regular use. Shower trays, especially in well-lit areas, can make minor imperfections more visible. While I aim for the best finish possible, no repair is completely invisible, and companies that claim otherwise should be questioned.
My repairs are done using only the highest quality materials available. I refuse to cut corners by using low-cost, inferior materials. 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. If the DIY repair doesn’t last, I’ll be here to fix it professionally. The materials and methods I use are far superior to those found in DIY kits. Discolouration and peeling are common problems with DIY bath and shower tray repair kits. That won't happen with my repairs. The fact that I’m still in business proves that DIY kits don’t provide long-term solutions.
Will my shower tray repair last a long time?
If maintained well, the repair will last as long as the rest of your shower tray. I stand by my work and offer a 12-month warranty on all shower tray repairs. Sometimes the damage will be very extensive or structural, and in this case, we will usually recommend getting the shower tray replaced instead of repaired. If you still want to have it repaired, I can do this, but I won't offer a guarantee in this instance.
1) Reach out to discuss your repair options.
2) Share details of the damage so I can provide the best solution.
3) I'll get a quote sent to you and your repair booked in.
