You probably feel very frustrated right now, if you just dropped something hard in your shower tray and caused a chip, or you have seen a crack developing. The thought of replacement means a lot of mess and a lot of money. Maybe your maintenance budget cannot afford replacement right now.

Leaving your shower tray cracked or chipped can be more harmful than good and won't save you money in the long run. Chips and cracks in warm and humid areas, such as the bathroom is breeding grounds for mould. Mould can be harmful to you and your family, especially if one of you has a respiratory problem, such as asthma.

In addition to this, replacement means finding a shower tray that is the exact size match to the one you currently have. Not to mention the area needs to be re-grouted, sealed and the doors re-erected. Then once the team leaves, you have a mighty mess to clean up. For this reason, shower tray repair can be more convenient and cost-effective.

The damage your shower tray has can be a dent, scratch, burn, chip, or crack. It may have some scuffs, discoloration, or stains. All of this can be repaired without ...
... having to replace, which can be a major benefit for any homeowner. Shower trays can be repaired in homes, student accommodation, bed and breakfasts, hotels, dorm rooms, and more. The repair will only take a couple of hours, depending on the damage.

The experienced shower tray repair specialists will use fillers for large damaged areas and carefully fill in smaller cracks and chips. The colour used will match that of your shower tray, as your shower tray may be a unique colour or has changed colour with age. Even shower trays with a grain can be matched perfectly. The match can copy fading that may be caused by UV or the cleaning products used.

The experienced specialists use a number of different techniques and tools to finish the shower tray repair so the cracks or chips are barely noticeable. You will be given after-care instructions which you must follow to ensure the repair stays effective and your shower tray remains in good condition.

Most of the top shower tray repair companies offer a one-year guarantee, as long as you follow they are after-care instructions. This gives you additional peace of mind. Many also offer environmentally friendly solutions, which can reduce your impact on the environment. This is in addition to the impact you would have had by replacing your shower tray.

Replacement is not an environmentally friendly solution. You have packaging materials to disperse and your old shower tray to get rid of. Not to mention the manufacturing impact in making the new shower tray, this is all the waste you reduce by repairing your shower tray rather than replacing it.

The sooner you have the repair carried out, the less damage will be caused. Once there is a small crack or chip, it can worsen, while the mould starts to grow in the open gap, where it's warm and damp. Timely repairs can preserve the life of your shower tray, making it look in good condition again.

Keeping a close eye on your shower tray when you clean it or when showering, will help you identify problems early on. With shower tray repair being affordable and fast, you can have your tray repaired quickly, reducing the risk of further damage moving forward.
