How bath repair works in TR24
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips along the edge of the bath.
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Local landmarks in New Grimsby
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Fraggle Rock Bar and St Nicholas's Church. A little further out are St Mary's Hospital (3.3 miles south-east) and King Charles's Castle (0.6 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Mount Todden and The Great Pool.
Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Common problems we fix in TR24
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

TR24 questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?

What happens if you find more damage?

Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
