What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we handle bath repair in Kilmichael Glassary
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips on the rim or sides, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Kilmichael Glassary and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

What else we do in Kilmichael Glassary
When to call us in Kilmichael Glassary
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmichael Glassary use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
