Bath repair at your home in Whitefield
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

When we’d advise against a repair
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

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Signs you need bath repair in Whitefield
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 enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
