Shower trays are available in various shapes and materials, each with its own characteristics. The most common types of shower trays are made from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass. These materials, while durable, can suffer damage from impacts, harsh chemicals, or excessive pressure if poorly installed. Prompt repairs prevent further deterioration and maintain the tray’s integrity. Quick, efficient repairs allow me to restore your shower tray within hours, eliminating the need for expensive replacements. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months unless otherwise stated. If a full resurfacing is required, I can handle that as well—although the process takes a little longer, the end result is a fresh, new-looking tray. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months, and I'm fully insured. This is the most environmentally friendly option too, as you won't have to scrap your old shower tray.
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. Getting the shade right is one of the most vital steps in a successful shower tray repair. I do this using special tinters on the day to make up a white colour that matches from scratch. Through extensive experience, I’ve developed the skill to create near-invisible repairs. Sometimes the location of the chip in the shower tray makes it very difficult to get an invisible repair, which is why we never say your repair will be invisible, but you shouldn't be able to see it with normal usage.
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. Without professional-grade adhesion and custom colour matching, DIY repairs tend to fail quickly. Many people report that DIY repairs start to yellow within months. It’s frustrating to invest time and money in a repair only for it to deteriorate. The professional materials I use ensure that the repair will last and won't discolour. To give you confidence in my work, I provide a full 12-month guarantee.
I begin the repair by coating the damaged area with a professional bonder and filling in the imperfections. 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. The result is a seamless blend that makes the repair virtually unnoticeable.
The most important thing to ascertain with a shower tray repair is how bad the damage is. Small chips and scratches can typically be fixed with a localized spot repair. When there is widespread damage or excessive chipping, a full resurfacing will provide the best results. When the damage compromises the integrity of the shower tray, reinforcement must be considered before proceeding with repairs. In such instances, a repair may not be advisable, as it may not hold up long-term.
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. I will then repair any visible damage, ensuring a smooth and even surface. 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. Now you need to leave the shower tray for 24 hours before using it so the repair can fully harden and cure. 7. A fresh-looking, restored shower tray—no need for a costly and messy replacement!
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. The repaired shower tray will be ready for use after a 24-hour curing period. A repair is not only more affordable than replacement, but it’s also significantly quicker!
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 could never promise that your repair will be 100% invisible, and I would be wary of companies that do promise this.
I only use the best quality professional-grade materials. I don’t compromise on quality by using budget materials. 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 think you can do your repair with a DIY Repair Kit instead, then you're welcome to try this out. I will be happy to help when that repair fails. The materials these kits provide are no comparison to the materials I use and my expertise in colour matching. A common complaint with DIY kits is that they fail or change colour shortly after application. When I do the repair, you can trust that it will last. The fact that I’m still in business proves that DIY kits don’t provide long-term solutions.
How long will a shower tray repair last?
Once repaired, your shower tray should last as long as its original lifespan. While I don’t set a specific lifespan for repairs, I back them with a 12-month warranty. For cases where the damage is too extensive or affects the structure, a replacement may be the better option. If you prefer to go ahead with the repair, I can do it, but without a warranty.
