About our bath repair in Tibbington

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and chips along the edge of the bath, we can usually put it right.

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

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DY4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tibbington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

When can I have a bath again?

Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

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?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Tibbington

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair
