Bath repair in Rotherham

Bath repair at your home in Rotherham

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks and holes in acrylic baths and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths 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 few hours. 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. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
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. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
