Bath repair in Blackburn with Darwen

Bath repair at your home in Blackburn with Darwen

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots where the enamel has gone and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
