Bath and surface repairs in LE3

How bath repair works in LE3

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust spots around the plughole, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
5. Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

• Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
• Give the bath a quick rinse after use
• If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
• Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
