Bath repair in St Helens

About bath repair in St Helens

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. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being 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 will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
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. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
