Every shower tray is different, with variations in material, shape, and dimensions. 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. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months unless otherwise stated. For those requiring resurfacing, I provide expert services that take slightly longer than chip repairs but restore the shower tray completely. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months, and I'm fully insured. By opting for repair, you’re making a sustainable choice that avoids unnecessary waste.
You may not have noticed, but there are many different shades of white when it comes to shower trays. 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 create a custom color blend on the spot using professional-grade tinters. 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. Many people try DIY repair kits to save money, but the poor-quality materials mean the repair won’t hold up. A DIY repair may not stick properly, and the colour will rarely match the original surface. 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. I use high-quality materials to guarantee a long-lasting, non-discoloring repair. To give you confidence in my work, I provide a full 12-month guarantee.
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. Then I will colour match a paint to your shower tray by eye and spray this over the repair using a fine spray gun. The result is a seamless blend that makes the repair virtually unnoticeable.
The key factor in repairing a shower tray is determining the severity of the damage. 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. 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 this is the case, we most likely won't recommend attempting to repair it as the repair may not last.
1. Send me pictures of the damage, and I will evaluate it and give you a free quote.
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. The next step is to apply another layer of bonder to the area. 5. Once the repair is prepped, I will match the color and blend it seamlessly with a fine spray. 6. Now you need to leave the shower tray for 24 hours before using it so the repair can fully harden and cure. 7. Use your shower tray again as normal! A brand new looking shower tray without any of the hassle of replacing it.
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. Once I complete the repair, you'll be able to use your shower tray again 24 hours later. Repairing instead of replacing saves both time and money, making it a hassle-free solution.
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. While I aim for the best finish possible, no repair is completely invisible, and companies that claim otherwise should be questioned.
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. To achieve an exceptional repair, only premium materials should be used. I have a long track record of happy customers who value my top-quality repair work.
If you want to attempt a DIY repair first, you're more than welcome to give it a go. 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. With my professional repair, you won’t experience these issues. If the DIY Repair Kits worked so well, then I wouldn't be in business anymore!
How long will a shower tray repair last?
Once repaired, your shower tray should last as long as its original lifespan. For added peace of mind, I provide a full 12-month guarantee on all 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. You can still choose to repair it, but in such cases, I cannot provide a guarantee.
