How we handle bath repair in Farnah Green

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and a kit repair that didn’t last, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

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

Common problems we fix in Farnah Green

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
