Bath repair at your home in SN4

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a kit repair that didn’t last and a hole punched through by something heavy.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Signs you need bath repair

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Holes from dropped items

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit.

SN4: your questions answered

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for SN4?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
