Bath repair across KY12: what to expect

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the next day. We are frequently asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  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.

Landlord and trade work in KY12

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
