Every shower tray is different, with variations in material, shape, and dimensions. Acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass are the most commonly used materials for shower trays. Despite their durability, shower trays can be damaged by impact, chemical exposure, or structural stress. Repairing damage early on can save time, money, and further complications. 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. Every repair I complete comes with a 12-month warranty unless specified otherwise. Shower tray resurfacing is an option if needed; while it takes longer than a simple chip repair, the results are stunning, and you can use it again the next day. 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.
Most people don’t realize, but shower trays come in a variety of white shades. Manufacturers use various materials to create shower trays, and over time, factors like sunlight and cleaning products can alter their shade. 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. While we don’t guarantee an invisible repair, it will blend in so well that you won’t see it during normal use.
To guarantee durability, I use only top-quality professional-grade materials in all my repairs. DIY repair kits are becoming more common, but they don’t provide the durability needed for a long-lasting fix. These kits often fail because they don’t bond properly or offer accurate colour matching. I have seen reviews where DIY kit repairs have started to yellow after just a few months. No one wants to waste time and money on a repair that doesn’t last. Unlike DIY kits, my professional materials provide a lasting, flawless repair. You can trust my repairs, as they all come with a full 12-month warranty.
To start the shower tray repair, I first apply a strong bonding agent and fill in the damaged section. A second coat of bonder is applied to ensure the repair holds strong. Once the area is prepped, I custom-mix a paint to match your shower tray and apply it using a fine spray gun. By using this technique, the repaired area will look natural and blend effortlessly.
Before proceeding with a repair, it’s essential to evaluate how extensive the damage is. If it is just localised surface damage like a few chips or scratches, then a spot repair is the best way forward. For more extensive damage or multiple chips, resurfacing is the best way to restore the shower tray’s appearance. If the damage has penetrated through the tray or is structural, we must assess whether reinforcement is possible. In such instances, a repair may not be advisable, as it may not hold up long-term.
1. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation 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. Any damage, such as holes, chips, or cracks, will be carefully filled in. 4. The next step is to apply another layer of bonder to the area. 5. Using my expertise, I will mix the perfect shade and apply it evenly with a fine mist sprayer. 6. You must wait a full day before using your shower tray to ensure the repair sets properly. 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. If resurfacing is needed, it can take a bit longer, but my goal is to finish the repair in one trip. The repaired shower tray will be ready for use after a 24-hour curing period. Choosing repair over replacement avoids unnecessary demolition and costs while being much faster.
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.
I ensure premium results by using only high-quality, professional-grade materials. I never use cheaper materials to try and save money. 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 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. 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. 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 can I expect my shower tray repair to hold up?
If maintained well, the repair will last as long as the rest of your shower tray. While I don’t set a specific lifespan for repairs, I back them with a 12-month warranty. For cases where the damage is too extensive or affects the structure, a replacement may be the better option. You can still choose to repair it, but in such cases, I cannot provide a guarantee.

3) I’ll send you a no-obligation quote and arrange your repair.
