Bath repair in Stirling

About bath repair in Stirling

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rust spots where the enamel has gone and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.

Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to 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.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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.
