Bath and surface repairs in WF16

About bath repair in WF16

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. 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. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a chipped rim or side.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.

Cost

Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
