How bath repair works in SP6

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and rusty patches near the plughole.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

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

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Signs you need bath repair

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
