Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
