Bath repair for Sibford Ferris homes

About our bath repair in Sibford Ferris

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with impact holes in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Sibford Ferris?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
