Bath Repair in Cheadle

Bath repair in Cheadle without replacing anything

You can usually use the bath the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about scratches and burns and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

Do you need bath repair in Cheadle?

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
