How bath repair works in BT62
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and a hole punched through by something heavy, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Near you in Portadown

How the damage happens
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Look out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
