Bath Repair in Jarrow

How we handle bath repair in Jarrow

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 is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and scratches and burns.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Tyneside. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Signs you need bath repair in Jarrow

Most bath damage starts with something being 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 once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while we work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again

What a repair can’t fix

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
