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. 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. I can repair all types of damage to shower trays in a few hours, which saves you a lot of time and money over replacing it. 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. For added peace of mind, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all repairs and carry full insurance. By opting for repair, you’re making a sustainable choice that avoids unnecessary waste.
Not all white shower trays are the same—there are subtle variations in shade. 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. While we don’t guarantee an invisible repair, it will blend in so well that you won’t see it during normal use.
I ensure long-lasting repairs by using only premium, professional-grade materials. DIY repair kits are becoming more common, but they don’t provide the durability needed for a long-lasting fix. Poor adhesion and incorrect colour matching are common issues with DIY kits. A common complaint with DIY kits is that the repair turns yellow over time. 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.
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. 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.
Assessing the extent of the damage is the first and most crucial step in shower tray repair. If it is just localised surface damage like a few chips or scratches, then a spot repair is the best way forward. A shower tray with multiple chips or surface damage is best restored through full resurfacing. When the damage compromises the integrity of the shower tray, reinforcement must be considered before proceeding with repairs. If structural reinforcement isn't possible, we generally do not recommend repair as it may not be durable.
1. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation quote.
2. The first step after arrival is cleaning the damage and applying a professional-grade bonder. 3. Next, I will fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the shower tray. 4. For maximum adhesion, a second layer of bonder will be applied. 5. I will custom-match the color to your shower tray and apply it using a precision spray gun. 6. Allow 24 hours for the repair to fully cure before using your shower tray again. 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. Resurfacing or extensive damage may take more time, but I always aim to finish in one visit. You'll be able to use your shower tray again after 24 hours, once the repair fully cures. Repairing instead of replacing saves both time and money, making it a hassle-free solution.
I work to ensure that the repair is undetectable under normal lighting conditions. Certain lighting conditions, like direct sunlight, can make any marks or repairs easier to spot. I could never promise that your repair will be 100% invisible, and I would be wary of companies that do promise this.
I ensure premium results by using only high-quality, professional-grade materials. Using cheaper materials results in poor repairs, which is why I always opt for quality. A high-quality repair isn’t possible with subpar materials. I have many very happy customers who continue to recommend me because they were so happy with their repairs.
If you're considering a DIY Repair Kit, feel free to test it out first. If the DIY repair doesn’t last, I’ll be here to fix it professionally. The materials these kits provide are no comparison to the materials I use and my expertise in colour matching. Many DIY repair kit users report that the fix falls off or discolours within months. I ensure that my repairs remain durable and maintain their colour. If DIY kits were truly effective, there wouldn’t be a need for professional repair services.
How durable is a shower tray repair?
Your shower tray repair should remain intact for the duration of the tray’s life. While I don’t set a specific lifespan for repairs, I back them with a 12-month warranty. 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.
1) Reach out to discuss your repair options.
2) Inform me of the damage, and I’ll guide you through the next steps.
3) I'll get a quote sent to you and your repair booked in.
