Bath and surface repairs in Stockton-on-Tees

How bath repair works in Stockton-on-Tees

You can usually use the bath the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and scratches and burns.

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled 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, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Questions from Stockton-on-Tees

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

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

What guarantee do I get?

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

When can I use it again after the repair?

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