Bath repair for Reraig homes

Bath repair at your home in Reraig

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about holes from dropped items and rust by the waste and overflow.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Rinse it down after each bath

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.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Reraig

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Common questions in Reraig

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Chips under the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit
