Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
How we handle bath repair in Park Street
We see 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. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Your questions about bath repair in Park Street
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you come to Park Street?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Park Street from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What we are called out for in Park Street
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
