About bath repair in BA3

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’s level with the surrounding surface. We are often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in BA3

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we are called out for in BA3

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
