Bath repair across TS12: what to expect

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a chipped rim or side and snagging damage from a refit.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

What you will pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

What we’re called out for in TS12

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Landlords, agents and businesses in TS12

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Redcar and Cleveland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
