Every shower tray is different, with variations in material, shape, and dimensions. Most shower trays on the market are constructed from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, or fiberglass. These materials, while durable, can suffer damage from impacts, harsh chemicals, or excessive pressure if poorly installed. If damage occurs, acting quickly can prevent the issue from worsening. 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. 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. I stand by my work with a 12-month guarantee and full insurance coverage. This is the most environmentally friendly option too, as you won't have to scrap your old shower tray.
White might seem standard, but shower trays actually come in many different 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. Accurate color matching is crucial to making the repair blend naturally with the rest of the shower tray. By using advanced tinting techniques, I ensure the new paint blends flawlessly with your shower tray. After years of perfecting this technique, I can achieve a color match that blends effortlessly. While we don’t guarantee an invisible repair, it will blend in so well that you won’t see it during normal use.
Every repair I do is made to last, thanks to the highest quality materials I use. DIY repair kits may seem like a cheaper alternative, but they use low-grade materials that won’t stand the test of time. A DIY repair may not stick properly, and the colour will rarely match the original surface. I have seen reviews where DIY kit repairs have started to yellow after just a few months. Why risk wasting money on a short-term fix when a professional repair will last? With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. To give you confidence in my work, I provide a full 12-month guarantee.
To start the shower tray repair, I first apply a strong bonding agent and fill in the damaged section. To enhance durability, I apply an additional layer of bonding agent. To ensure a perfect blend, I mix a custom-matched paint and spray it over the repair using a professional spray gun. This process allows the repair to integrate smoothly with the rest of the shower tray.
The most important thing to ascertain with a shower tray repair is how bad the damage is. For minor surface damage, such as chips or scratches, a spot repair is the most effective solution. 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. Should the damage be too severe to reinforce, we may advise against repair due to longevity concerns.
1. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation quote.
2. To begin the repair, I will cleanse the area and apply a strong bonding layer to ensure durability. 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. Once the repair is done, let it cure for a day before resuming normal use. 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. Severe damage or full resurfacing may extend the repair time, but I complete most jobs in a single visit. You'll be able to use your shower tray again after 24 hours, once the repair fully cures. This process is much faster than ripping out your old shower tray to replace it, and it is much cheaper too!
Each repair is done with precision so that it won’t stand out during normal use. If your shower tray is placed near a window, light exposure may make even small repairs more noticeable. I provide high-quality repairs, but no repair is completely invisible—be cautious of companies that claim otherwise.
My repairs are done using only the highest quality materials available. Using cheaper materials results in poor repairs, which is why I always opt for quality. If you want a repair that lasts, the quality of materials makes all the difference. 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. Once the DIY kit fails, I’ll be available to do the job right. The materials and methods I use are far superior to those found in DIY kits. 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. There’s a reason professional repair services exist—because DIY kits don’t offer lasting results.
How long will a shower tray repair last?
A shower tray repair should last for as long as the tray itself. Every repair comes with a 12-month warranty, though repairs are designed to last much longer. If the damage is severe or structural, I typically advise replacing the shower tray rather than repairing it. Should you opt for a repair despite the damage, I’ll proceed, though I won’t be able to guarantee it.
