Bath Repair near Huyton with Roby

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we handle bath repair in Huyton with Roby

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Knowsley. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Signs you need bath repair in Huyton with Roby

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Scratches and burns
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

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 tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
