Bath repair in Birmingham

How bath repair works in Birmingham

You can usually use the bath the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about rust spots where the enamel has gone and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
