Bath repair in Larne

How bath repair works in Larne

Most baths can be used again the next day. 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. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted 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 lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
