Bath and surface repairs in GU47

How bath repair works in GU47

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We’re frequently asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and cracks in an acrylic bath, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

• Do not leave a fresh chip for long
• Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
• Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
• Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. 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.
