Shower trays vary in size, shape, and material, making each one unique. These trays are typically made from acrylic, stone resin, fiberglass, or ceramic. Over time, exposure to pressure, impact, and chemicals can lead to damage, especially if installation was not done correctly. If damage occurs, acting quickly can prevent the issue from worsening. 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. For your confidence, I offer a 12-month guarantee on all shower tray repairs. 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. I stand by my work with a 12-month guarantee and full insurance coverage. This is the most environmentally friendly option too, as you won't have to scrap your old shower tray.
White might seem standard, but shower trays actually come in many different shades. Different manufacturers use different materials to produce their shower trays, and even things like exposure to sunlight and chemicals can affect the shade of white it is. For a seamless repair, precise color matching is essential to blend with your existing shower tray. I do this using special tinters on the day to make up a white colour that matches from scratch. With years of experience, I have mastered the art of seamless shower tray color matching. Sometimes the location of the chip in the shower tray makes it very difficult to get an invisible repair, which is why we never say your repair will be invisible, but you shouldn't be able to see it with normal usage.
I ensure long-lasting repairs by using only premium, professional-grade materials. Many people try DIY repair kits to save money, but the poor-quality materials mean the repair won’t hold up. Without professional-grade adhesion and custom colour matching, DIY repairs tend to fail quickly. Many people report that DIY repairs start to yellow within months. After putting in the effort, the last thing you want is for the repair to fail. Unlike DIY kits, my professional materials provide a lasting, flawless 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. The result is a seamless blend that makes the repair virtually unnoticeable.
The first step in any shower tray repair is identifying the level of damage. If it is just localised surface damage like a few chips or scratches, then a spot repair is the best way forward. If the surface wear is significant, or if multiple areas are damaged, resurfacing is the optimal solution. In cases where the damage is structural or has gone through the tray, we need to determine if it can be strengthened before repair. Should the damage be too severe to reinforce, we may advise against repair due to longevity concerns.
1. I’ll review the damage from the photos you provide and offer a no-obligation quote.
2. I start by cleaning the affected area and applying a specialized bonder before filling in the damage. 3. Next, I will fill in any chips, cracks, or holes in the shower tray. 4. I then apply another layer of bonding agent to ensure long-lasting results. 5. I will custom-match the color to your shower tray and apply it using a precision spray gun. 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!
Most of our shower tray repairs will take about 1-2 hours. Severe damage or full resurfacing may extend the repair time, but I complete most jobs in a single visit. 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.
I work to ensure that the repair is undetectable under normal lighting conditions. Shower trays, especially in well-lit areas, can make minor imperfections more visible. I don’t make false promises about 100% invisibility—any company that does should be approached with caution.
Every repair I complete is made with industry-leading materials for durability. Using cheaper materials results in poor repairs, which is why I always opt for quality. 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're considering a DIY Repair Kit, feel free to test it out first. Once the DIY kit fails, I’ll be available to do the job right. The materials and methods I use are far superior to those found in DIY kits. I've seen reviews for these DIY Repair Kits saying the repairs fell off or discoloured after just a few months. I ensure that my repairs remain durable and maintain their colour. If DIY kits were that great, I wouldn’t have so many customers needing proper repairs.
What is the lifespan of a shower tray repair?
If maintained well, the repair will last as long as the rest of your shower tray. 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 damage is severe or structural, I typically advise replacing the shower tray rather than repairing it. If you still want to have it repaired, I can do this, but I won't offer a guarantee in this instance.
