Bath and surface repairs in Lancashire

How bath repair works in Lancashire

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. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

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, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

When we visit, 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 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. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  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.

Questions from Lancashire

What guarantee do I get?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses in Lancashire?

Yes. We carry out repairs for landlords, agents, builders, hotels and homeowners.
