Bath and surface repairs in NG17

Bath repair across NG17: what to expect

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and chips on the rim or sides.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

• Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
• Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
• Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
• Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

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 it pays to deal with it early.
