Common problems we fix in Aldington

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Landlord and trade work in Aldington

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Your questions about bath repair in Aldington

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Aldington and the rest of Worcestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Aldington?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
