Bath repair in Cole Henley, done in place

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Signs you need bath repair in Cole Henley

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
