Bath Repair near Wallasey

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. 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. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Bath repair at your home in Wallasey

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 and the tiles around it. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and scratches and burns.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Wallasey questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Can landlords and businesses in Wallasey book you?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How soon can I use it again?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What guarantee do I get?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Wallasey?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wallasey and the rest of Wirral. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Signs you need bath repair in Wallasey

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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.
