There are many types of shower trays, differing in size, design, and materials. Shower trays are often manufactured from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, or fiberglass. Despite their durability, shower trays can be damaged by impact, chemical exposure, or structural stress. Prompt repairs prevent further deterioration and maintain the tray’s integrity. 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. I provide a 12-month guarantee on all repairs, giving you peace of mind. 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. By opting for repair, you’re making a sustainable choice that avoids unnecessary waste.
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. A key aspect of shower tray repair is ensuring the new paint perfectly matches the original color. By using advanced tinting techniques, I ensure the new paint blends flawlessly with your shower tray. With years of experience, I have mastered the art of seamless shower tray color matching. Certain chip locations make it difficult to achieve a fully invisible repair, but in regular use, it won’t be noticeable.
Every repair I do is made to last, thanks to the highest quality materials I use. I have seen DIY repair kits growing in popularity as people try to save money, but ultimately, the DIY repair won't last as the materials they come with are very basic quality. Poor adhesion and incorrect colour matching are common issues with DIY kits. The last thing you want is a repair that turns yellow after a short period. It’s frustrating to invest time and money in a repair only for it to deteriorate. With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. You can trust my repairs, as they all come with a full 12-month warranty.
The first step in repairing a shower tray is applying a bonding solution before carefully filling in the damage. I will then apply another layer of bonder to it. I then carefully match the paint to your shower tray’s shade and apply it evenly with a fine mist sprayer. By using this technique, the repaired area will look natural and blend effortlessly.
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. When there is widespread damage or excessive chipping, a full resurfacing will provide the best results. Where the damage has actually broken through the shower tray, or is structural, we'll have to decide if the shower tray can be reinforced from underneath before repairing it. If this is the case, we most likely won't recommend attempting to repair it as the repair may not last.
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. Next, I'll colour match the paint to your shower tray and spray it on with a fine spray gun. 6. You must wait a full day before using your shower tray to ensure the repair sets properly. 7. Once cured, your shower tray will look brand new and be ready for regular use!
The majority of shower tray repairs take around 1-2 hours to finish. For more significant damage or resurfacing, the process takes longer, but I strive to complete everything in one visit. You can safely use your shower tray again in just 24 hours after the repair. Repairing instead of replacing saves both time and money, making it a hassle-free solution.
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 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. Unlike some, I won’t sacrifice quality just to save costs. Low-quality materials can’t produce a long-lasting, seamless repair. Customers trust my repairs and often refer me to others due to their excellent experiences.
If you think you can do your repair with a DIY Repair Kit instead, then you're welcome to try this out. If the DIY fix doesn’t hold up, I’m here to provide a proper repair. DIY kits lack the professional-grade materials and expert colour-matching that I provide. A common complaint with DIY kits is that they fail or change colour shortly after application. You won’t have to worry about peeling, cracking, or fading with my work. The fact that I’m still in business proves that DIY kits don’t provide long-term solutions.
Will my shower tray repair last a long time?
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. If the damage is severe or structural, I typically advise replacing the shower tray rather than repairing it. I can repair even severe damage, but I won’t offer a guarantee if the structural integrity is compromised.
