Shower trays vary in size, shape, and material, making each one unique. The most common types of shower trays are made from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass. Improper installation, strong chemicals, or accidental impacts can cause damage to any of these materials. Repairing damage early on can save time, money, and further complications. Quick, efficient repairs allow me to restore your shower tray within hours, eliminating the need for expensive replacements. I provide a 12-month guarantee on all repairs, giving you peace of mind. For those requiring resurfacing, I provide expert services that take slightly longer than chip repairs but restore the shower tray completely. 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.
White might seem standard, but shower trays actually come in many different shades. The material, manufacturer, and exposure to elements like sunlight and chemicals can all impact a shower tray’s color. 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.
I ensure long-lasting repairs by using only premium, professional-grade materials. I understand the appeal of DIY repair kits, but their low-quality materials mean the repair is unlikely to last. Poor adhesion and incorrect colour matching are common issues with DIY kits. The last thing you want is a repair that turns yellow after a short period. After putting in the effort, the last thing you want is for the repair to fail. By using professional-grade materials, I ensure that your repair remains durable and free from discoloration. You can trust my repairs, as they all come with a full 12-month warranty.
The first step for a shower tray repair is to apply a special bonder to the area and then fill in the damage. I will then apply another layer of bonder to it. To ensure a perfect blend, I mix a custom-matched paint and spray it over the repair using a professional spray gun. By using this technique, the repaired area will look natural and blend effortlessly.
The most important thing to ascertain with a shower tray repair is how bad the damage is. If the damage is minimal, such as light scratches or a few chips, a spot repair will suffice. When there is widespread damage or excessive chipping, a full resurfacing will provide the best results. If the damage has penetrated through the tray or is structural, we must assess whether reinforcement is possible. If this is the case, we most likely won't recommend attempting to repair it as the repair may not last.
1. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation quote.
2. I start by cleaning the affected area and applying a specialized bonder before filling in the damage. 3. Any damage, such as holes, chips, or cracks, will be carefully filled in. 4. The next step is to apply another layer of bonder to the area. 5. I will custom-match the color to your shower tray and apply it using a precision spray gun. 6. Once the repair is done, let it cure for a day before resuming normal use. 7. After 24 hours, your shower tray is ready to use—good as new without any replacements!
On average, shower tray repairs are completed in 1-2 hours. If resurfacing is needed, it can take a bit longer, but my goal is to finish the repair in one trip. After the repair is done, you just need to wait 24 hours before using your shower tray. Compared to replacing the entire shower tray, this method is quicker and far more cost-effective!
I always strive to make shower tray repairs blend seamlessly so they aren’t noticeable in everyday 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. I provide high-quality repairs, but no repair is completely invisible—be cautious of companies that claim otherwise.
I only use the best quality professional-grade materials. I don’t compromise on quality by using budget materials. You won't achieve a high standard of repair using cheap materials. The number of repeat clients and referrals I receive speaks to the quality of my work.
If you want to attempt a DIY repair first, you're more than welcome to give it a go. 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. I've seen reviews for these DIY Repair Kits saying the repairs fell off or discoloured after just a few months. When I do the repair, you can trust that it will last. If the DIY Repair Kits worked so well, then I wouldn't be in business anymore!
What is the lifespan of a shower tray repair?
Your shower tray repair should remain intact for the duration of the tray’s life. 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. Should you opt for a repair despite the damage, I’ll proceed, though I won’t be able to guarantee it.
1) Contact me for quick and reliable advice.
