Need bath repair in Lutton Gowts?

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Questions from Lutton Gowts

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you cover Lutton Gowts?

We do. We send a technician to Lutton Gowts for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
