Bath repair in Gipsyville, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Gipsyville
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
