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. Unfortunately, all of these materials are prone to damage caused by impacts, strong chemicals, and even too much pressure if they have not been installed correctly. If damage occurs, acting quickly can prevent the issue from worsening. Rather than replacing your shower tray, I can repair it in just a few hours, providing a cost-effective solution. 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. All of my repairs are guaranteed for 12 months, and I'm fully insured. Repairing instead of replacing your shower tray is the greener, more eco-friendly choice.
Did you know that shower trays can have different shades of white? The material, manufacturer, and exposure to elements like sunlight and chemicals can all impact a shower tray’s color. One of the most important parts of doing a shower tray repair is to colour match the new paint for the repair exactly to your existing shower tray. I custom-mix the exact shade needed using professional tinters on the day of repair. After years of perfecting this technique, I can achieve a color match that blends effortlessly. Depending on where the damage is, achieving a completely invisible repair can be challenging, but it should be unnoticeable during everyday use.
Every repair I do is made to last, thanks to the highest quality materials I use. DIY repair kits are becoming more common, but they don’t provide the durability needed for a long-lasting fix. Poor adhesion and incorrect colour matching are common issues with DIY kits. Many people report that DIY repairs start to yellow within months. That's the last thing you need after spending the time and money doing it. Unlike DIY kits, my professional materials provide a lasting, flawless repair. I also offer a 12-month guarantee for your peace of mind.
The first step in repairing a shower tray is applying a bonding solution before carefully filling in the damage. Next, I reinforce the area by adding another layer of bonder. I then carefully match the paint to your shower tray’s shade and apply it evenly with a fine mist sprayer. 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. 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. When the damage compromises the integrity of the shower tray, reinforcement must be considered before proceeding with repairs. If reinforcement isn’t a viable option, we typically recommend replacement instead of repair.
1. I will assess the damage to your shower tray from pictures you send in and provide you with a free quote.
2. On arrival, I will thoroughly clean the damaged area and apply a bonding agent to prepare for the filler. 3. Next, I will fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the shower tray. 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. Allow 24 hours for the repair to fully cure before using your shower tray again. 7. After 24 hours, your shower tray is ready to use—good as new without any replacements!
Most of our shower tray repairs will take about 1-2 hours. If the damage is more extensive or the shower tray needs to be resurfaced, this will take longer, but I always aim to have all the damage repaired in just one visit. Once I complete the repair, you'll be able to use your shower tray again 24 hours later. 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. 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 provide high-quality repairs, but no repair is completely invisible—be cautious of companies that claim otherwise.
I work exclusively with top-tier, professional-grade materials. I refuse to cut corners by using low-cost, inferior materials. To achieve an exceptional repair, only premium materials should be used. The number of repeat clients and referrals I receive speaks to the quality of my work.
If you think you can do your repair with a DIY Repair Kit instead, then you're welcome to try this out. Once the DIY kit fails, I’ll be available to do the job right. The materials these kits provide are no comparison to the materials I use and my expertise in colour matching. Reviews often mention that DIY repairs don’t last long and start looking bad quickly. When I do the repair, you can trust that it will last. If DIY kits were truly effective, there wouldn’t be a need for professional repair services.
How long will a shower tray repair last?
A properly done shower tray repair will hold up for the lifetime of the tray. I stand by my work and offer a 12-month warranty on all shower tray repairs. For cases where the damage is too extensive or affects the structure, a replacement may be the better option. Should you opt for a repair despite the damage, I’ll proceed, though I won’t be able to guarantee it.
