Every shower tray is different, with variations in material, shape, and dimensions. These trays are typically made from acrylic, stone resin, fiberglass, or ceramic. Improper installation, strong chemicals, or accidental impacts can cause damage to any of these materials. Prompt repairs prevent further deterioration and maintain the tray’s integrity. Rather than replacing your shower tray, I can repair it in just a few hours, providing a cost-effective solution. All my work is backed by a full 12-month warranty, unless stated otherwise. If your shower tray needs to be resurfaced, I can do this too; the procedure takes a bit longer than a chip repair, and you'll have a brand-new looking shower tray at the end of it, which you can use again the next day. With full insurance and a 12-month guarantee, you can trust my repairs to last. Repairing instead of replacing your shower tray is the greener, more eco-friendly choice.
You may not have noticed, but there are many different shades of white when it comes to shower trays. A shower tray’s shade of white is influenced by its material, manufacturer, and even external factors like light and chemicals. Getting the shade right is one of the most vital steps in a successful shower tray repair. I custom-mix the exact shade needed using professional tinters on the day of repair. 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 only use the highest quality professional-grade materials available to ensure that all of my repairs are lasting. Many people try DIY repair kits to save money, but the poor-quality materials mean the repair won’t hold up. Poor adhesion and incorrect colour matching are common issues with DIY kits. Many people report that DIY repairs start to yellow within months. No one wants to waste time and money on a repair that doesn’t last. With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. Every repair I complete comes with a 12-month warranty for added assurance.
The first step in repairing a shower tray is applying a bonding solution before carefully filling in the damage. A second coat of bonder is applied to ensure the repair holds strong. Then I will colour match a paint to your shower tray by eye and spray this over the repair using a fine spray gun. This guarantees a smooth, flawless finish that matches the rest of the shower tray.
Before proceeding with a repair, it’s essential to evaluate how extensive the damage is. For minor surface damage, such as chips or scratches, a spot repair is the most effective solution. If the whole surface has been damaged or there are more than just a few chips, we would ideally resurface your shower tray to make sure it looks new again. For cracks or structural issues, reinforcement from beneath may be necessary before attempting a repair. If this is the case, we most likely won't recommend attempting to repair it as the repair may not last.
1. You can send in photos of your shower tray, and I’ll assess the damage and provide a free estimate.
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. Any damage, such as holes, chips, or cracks, will be carefully filled in. 4. After filling the damage, I will apply an additional bonder layer for extra strength. 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.
Most of our shower tray repairs will take about 1-2 hours. Resurfacing or extensive damage may take more time, but I always aim to finish 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. Certain lighting conditions, like direct sunlight, can make any marks or repairs easier to spot. A completely invisible repair isn’t always possible, and I’d advise skepticism toward any company that guarantees it.
Every repair I complete is made with industry-leading materials for durability. I refuse to cut corners by using low-cost, inferior materials. Low-quality materials can’t produce a long-lasting, seamless repair. I have a long track record of happy customers who value my top-quality repair work.
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. You won’t get the same durability or colour match from a DIY kit as you will from my repair. I've seen reviews for these DIY Repair Kits saying the repairs fell off or discoloured after just a few months. I ensure that my repairs remain durable and maintain their colour. If the DIY Repair Kits worked so well, then I wouldn't be in business anymore!
How durable is a shower tray repair?
If maintained well, the repair will last as long as the rest of your shower tray. For added peace of mind, I provide a full 12-month guarantee on all repairs. 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.
