Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Have new chips seen to early

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Bath repair at your home in Bromborough Pool

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Whether it’s a chip where the taps sit and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Bromborough Pool

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace in Bromborough Pool?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CH62 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Bromborough Pool: your questions answered

Do you work in Bromborough Pool?

We do. We send a technician to Bromborough Pool for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
