Every shower tray is different, with variations in material, shape, and dimensions. Shower trays are often manufactured from acrylic, stone resin, ceramic, or fiberglass. Improper installation, strong chemicals, or accidental impacts can cause damage to any of these materials. 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. Every repair I complete comes with a 12-month warranty unless specified otherwise. If your shower tray needs to be resurfaced, I can do this too; the procedure takes a bit longer than a chip repair, and you'll have a brand-new looking shower tray at the end of it, which you can use again the next day. For added peace of mind, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all repairs and carry full insurance. 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. The material, manufacturer, and exposure to elements like sunlight and chemicals can all impact a shower tray’s color. Accurate color matching is crucial to making the repair blend naturally with the rest of the shower tray. I create a custom color blend on the spot using professional-grade tinters. Through extensive experience, I’ve developed the skill to create near-invisible repairs. 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 understand the appeal of DIY repair kits, but their low-quality materials mean the repair is unlikely to last. The repair will fall off due to not being adhered properly, or the colour won't be matched properly. DIY repairs frequently discolor after just a few months, making the problem even worse. After putting in the effort, the last thing you want is for the repair to fail. I use high-quality materials to guarantee a long-lasting, non-discoloring repair. You can trust my repairs, as they all come with a full 12-month warranty.
The repair process begins with applying a specialized bonder to the damaged area before filling it. Next, I reinforce the area by adding another layer of bonder. Then I will colour match a paint to your shower tray by eye and spray this over the repair using a fine spray gun. This process allows the repair to integrate smoothly with the rest of the shower tray.
The first step in any shower tray repair is identifying the level of damage. Small chips and scratches can typically be fixed with a localized spot repair. If the whole surface has been damaged or there are more than just a few chips, we would ideally resurface your shower tray to make sure it looks new again. In cases where the damage is structural or has gone through the tray, we need to determine if it can be strengthened before repair. If reinforcement isn’t a viable option, we typically recommend replacement instead of repair.
1. Send me pictures of the damage, and I will evaluate it and give you 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. I will reinforce the repair by adding another coat of bonder. 5. I will custom-match the color to your shower tray and apply it using a precision spray gun. 6. Allow 24 hours for the repair to fully cure before using your shower tray again. 7. Once cured, your shower tray will look brand new and be ready for regular use!
Most shower tray repairs are quick, usually done within 1-2 hours. If resurfacing is needed, it can take a bit longer, but my goal is to finish the repair in one trip. You'll be able to use your shower tray again after 24 hours, once the repair fully cures. 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. 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 ensure premium results by using only high-quality, professional-grade materials. Unlike some, I won’t sacrifice quality just to save costs. A high-quality repair isn’t possible with subpar materials. 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. If the DIY repair doesn’t last, I’ll be here to fix it professionally. DIY kits lack the professional-grade materials and expert colour-matching that I provide. Discolouration and peeling are common problems with DIY bath and shower tray repair kits. That won't happen with my repairs. If the DIY Repair Kits worked so well, then I wouldn't be in business anymore!
How long can I expect my shower tray repair to hold up?
Once repaired, your shower tray should last as long as its original lifespan. I stand by my work and offer a 12-month warranty on all shower tray repairs. Severe or structural damage might require a full replacement rather than a simple repair. I can repair even severe damage, but I won’t offer a guarantee if the structural integrity is compromised.

3) I’ll provide a free quote and schedule your repair.
