Bath Repair in Wavertree

How we handle bath repair in Wavertree

Most baths can be used again 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 cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wavertree as everywhere else we work. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Questions from Wavertree

Will you leave a mess?

We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and clean up when we finish.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can landlords and businesses in Wavertree book you?

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

Do you come to Wavertree?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wavertree and the rest of Liverpool. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Signs you need bath repair in Wavertree

Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. 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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price
