The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access

How we handle bath repair in Heyrod
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about impact holes in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace in Heyrod?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Heyrod. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
