Bath repair at your home in EX10

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are impact holes in acrylic and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What’s near Sidmouth

Around Sidmouth, we work in homes near Sidmouth Church of England (VA) Primary School, The Balfour pub and St Francis of Assisi and the streets around them.

What we are called out for in EX10

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

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips caused by builders

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you.

Landlords, agents and businesses in EX10

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
