Shower trays vary in size, shape, and material, making each one unique. The most common types of shower trays are made from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, and fiberglass. Over time, exposure to pressure, impact, and chemicals can lead to damage, especially if installation was not done correctly. When this happens, it's important to have the damage repaired straight away before it gets worse. A full replacement isn’t necessary—I can restore your shower tray in just a few hours, saving you time and money. Every repair I complete comes with a 12-month warranty unless specified otherwise. 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. Every repair I do is covered by a 12-month warranty, and I am fully insured. Resurfacing or repairing your shower tray is an eco-conscious solution that extends its lifespan.
Not all white shower trays are the same—there are subtle variations in shade. A shower tray’s shade of white is influenced by its material, manufacturer, and even external factors like light and chemicals. A key aspect of shower tray repair is ensuring the new paint perfectly matches the original color. I do this using special tinters on the day to make up a white colour that matches from scratch. My expertise in color-matching ensures that your repair integrates smoothly with the original surface. Depending on where the damage is, achieving a completely invisible repair can be challenging, but it should be unnoticeable during everyday use.
I only use the highest quality professional-grade materials available to ensure that all of my repairs are lasting. DIY repair kits are becoming more common, but they don’t provide the durability needed for a long-lasting fix. Without professional-grade adhesion and custom colour matching, DIY repairs tend to fail quickly. The last thing you want is a repair that turns yellow after a short period. No one wants to waste time and money on a repair that doesn’t last. I use high-quality materials to guarantee a long-lasting, non-discoloring repair. Every repair I complete comes with a 12-month warranty for added assurance.
The repair process begins with applying a specialized bonder to the damaged area before filling it. A second coat of bonder is applied to ensure the repair holds strong. To ensure a perfect blend, I mix a custom-matched paint and spray it over the repair using a professional 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. If the damage is minimal, such as light scratches or a few chips, a spot repair will suffice. For more extensive damage or multiple chips, resurfacing is the best way to restore the shower tray’s appearance. When the damage compromises the integrity of the shower tray, reinforcement must be considered before proceeding with repairs. If structural reinforcement isn't possible, we generally do not recommend repair as it may not be durable.
1. You can send in photos of your shower tray, and I’ll assess the damage and provide a free estimate.
2. On arrival, I will thoroughly clean the damaged area and apply a bonding agent to prepare for the filler. 3. Any damage, such as holes, chips, or cracks, will be carefully filled in. 4. I will reinforce the repair by adding another coat of bonder. 5. Once the repair is prepped, I will match the color and blend it seamlessly with a fine spray. 6. You must wait a full day before using your shower tray to ensure the repair sets properly. 7. Enjoy your refreshed shower tray without the cost or hassle of a full replacement!
Typically, shower tray repairs are completed within 1-2 hours. 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. Compared to replacing the entire shower tray, this method is quicker and far more cost-effective!
My goal is to ensure that the repair is practically invisible during regular use. Certain lighting conditions, like direct sunlight, can make any marks or repairs easier to spot. While I aim for the best finish possible, no repair is completely invisible, and companies that claim otherwise should be questioned.
My repairs are done using only the highest quality materials available. Unlike some, I won’t sacrifice quality just to save costs. To achieve an exceptional repair, only premium materials should be used. Customers trust my repairs and often refer me to others due to their excellent experiences.
Some people try DIY repair kits before calling me, and that's completely fine. When the DIY repair doesn’t work out, I’ll be happy to assist. The materials and methods I use are far superior to those found in DIY kits. Many DIY repair kit users report that the fix falls off or discolours within months. You won’t have to worry about peeling, cracking, or fading with my work. There’s a reason professional repair services exist—because DIY kits don’t offer lasting results.
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. I stand by my work and offer a 12-month warranty on all shower tray repairs. If the tray has major structural damage, I often recommend a full replacement over repair. If you still want to have it repaired, I can do this, but I won't offer a guarantee in this instance.
