Victorian & Edwardian Properties: The older streets around Orphanage Road and Station Road feature beautiful period homes with original cast iron baths. These often suffer from enamel wear, rust patches, and limescale damage. Our specialised re-enamelling process restores them to their former glory without the disruption of removal.
1930s Semi-Detached Houses: Erdington has thousands of inter-war semis, particularly around Kingstanding Road and Tyburn Road. These typically have pressed steel baths prone to chips around the overflow and tap areas. Years of use create worn patches that our resurfacing service transforms completely.
Post-War Council Properties: The estates built after Birmingham's slum clearances often feature robust but dated bathroom fixtures. Common issues include discolouration, stubborn stains, and surface crazing. Our bath repair techniques save Housing Association budgets while maintaining tenant satisfaction.
Modern Developments: Newer properties near The Fort and around Sutton New Road often have acrylic or fibreglass baths. These scratch easily and can crack under stress. We repair these using colour-matched compounds that bond permanently, avoiding expensive replacements.
Step 1 - Assessment: Every bath repair Erdington job starts with thorough inspection. We check the bath material (cast iron, steel, acrylic, or fibreglass), assess damage extent, and identify any underlying issues. This takes about 15 minutes.
Step 2 - Preparation: The bath surface is cleaned using professional degreasers and descalers. Any loose material is removed, and the repair area is sanded to create the perfect bonding surface. We protect your tiles, taps, and bathroom fixtures with specialist masking.
Step 3 - Repair: Using colour-matched compounds, we fill chips and cracks in thin layers. Each layer is cured and sanded smooth. For larger areas, we use spray equipment for a factory-perfect finish. This is where our 30 years experience makes the difference.
Step 4 - Finishing: The repaired area is polished to match your bath's original sheen. We apply protective sealers that guard against future damage. The result is invisible repairs that last for years.
Step 5 - Quality Check: Before leaving, we thoroughly inspect the repair, test water resistance, and ensure perfect colour matching. You receive care instructions and our 12-month warranty certificate.
Typical Timeframes: Small chips: 1-2 hours | Multiple repairs: 2-3 hours | Full resurfacing: 3-4 hours | Curing time: 24 hours before use
