Bath repair in Bardsey without replacing anything

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Typical jobs include cracks in an acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Bardsey

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Holes from dropped items
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Common questions in Bardsey

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Do you cover the entire of Leeds?

Everywhere in the UK, Bardsey included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
