About bath repair in CM19

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Signs you need bath repair

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

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

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

CM19: your questions answered

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
