How bath repair works in ST9

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  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 normally use the bath the day after.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

What we are called out for in ST9

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage beneath the taps

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

FAQs for ST9

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
