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. Despite their durability, shower trays can be damaged by impact, chemical exposure, or structural stress. If damage occurs, acting quickly can prevent the issue from worsening. Quick, efficient repairs allow me to restore your shower tray within hours, eliminating the need for expensive replacements. For your confidence, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all shower tray repairs. For those requiring resurfacing, I provide expert services that take slightly longer than chip repairs but restore the shower tray completely. With full insurance and a 12-month guarantee, you can trust my repairs to last. Repairing instead of replacing your shower tray is the greener, more eco-friendly choice.
Not all white shower trays are the same—there are subtle variations in shade. Over time, exposure to sunlight, cleaning agents, and the materials used in production can slightly change a shower tray’s original shade. A key aspect of shower tray repair is ensuring the new paint perfectly matches the original color. 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. 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. A common complaint with DIY kits is that the repair turns yellow over time. That's the last thing you need after spending the time and money doing it. With my expert materials, your repair will stay intact and maintain its original appearance. 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. I will then apply another layer of bonder to it. To ensure a perfect blend, I mix a custom-matched paint and spray it over the repair using a professional spray gun. By using this technique, the repaired area will look natural and blend effortlessly.
The first step in any shower tray repair is identifying the level of damage. For isolated damage, like a couple of chips or surface marks, a quick spot repair is ideal. If the surface wear is significant, or if multiple areas are damaged, resurfacing is the optimal solution. 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. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation quote.
2. To begin the repair, I will cleanse the area and apply a strong bonding layer to ensure durability. 3. Any damage, such as holes, chips, or cracks, will be carefully filled in. 4. For maximum adhesion, a second layer of bonder will be applied. 5. Once the repair is prepped, I will match the color and blend it seamlessly with a fine spray. 6. For best results, leave the tray untouched for 24 hours while the repair solidifies. 7. Use your shower tray again as normal! A brand new looking shower tray without any of the hassle of replacing it.
Most shower tray repairs are quick, usually done within 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. The repaired shower tray will be ready for use after a 24-hour curing period. A repair is not only more affordable than replacement, but it’s also significantly quicker!
I work to ensure that the repair is undetectable under normal lighting conditions. If your shower tray is placed near a window, light exposure may make even small repairs more noticeable. A completely invisible repair isn’t always possible, and I’d advise skepticism toward any company that guarantees it.
I ensure premium results by using only high-quality, professional-grade materials. I never use cheaper materials to try and save money. Low-quality materials can’t produce a long-lasting, seamless repair. 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 fix doesn’t hold up, I’m here to provide a proper repair. The materials these kits provide are no comparison to the materials I use and my expertise in colour matching. Many DIY repair kit users report that the fix falls off or discolours within months. That won't happen with my repairs. If DIY kits were truly effective, there wouldn’t be a need for professional repair services.
How long will a shower tray repair last?
Your shower tray repair should remain intact for the duration of the tray’s life. I don't put a time limit on our repairs, but I do provide a 12-month warranty with all of our repairs. If the tray has major structural damage, I often recommend a full replacement over repair. If you prefer to go ahead with the repair, I can do it, but without a warranty.
