Bath Repair near Tipton

Do you need bath repair in Tipton?

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something 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, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Scratches and burns
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

Our hiring checklist

Bath repair in Tipton without replacing anything

Most baths can be used again the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about scratches and burns and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sandwell. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Tipton

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. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.

  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
