Bath repair in Darlington

How bath repair works in Darlington

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

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

1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
