Bath and surface repairs in MK45

Our bath repair service in MK45

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re frequently asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
4. We match both the colour and the shine.
5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

• Have new chips seen to early
• Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
• Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
• Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. 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.
