Bath and surface repairs in OX4

About bath repair in OX4

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and a cracked acrylic bath.

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
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 day after.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

• Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
• Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
• Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
• Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

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.
