Bath repair in Bournemouth

About bath repair in Bournemouth

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks and holes in acrylic baths and rust spots where the enamel has gone.

Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
