Every bath repair Tipton job starts with thorough assessment. We check the type of damage, bath material, and surrounding areas. Preparation is crucial - we protect your bathroom with professional sheets and ensure perfect ventilation. For Tipton's older properties, we take extra care with flooring that might be original Victorian tiles or vintage lino.
The bath surface is then cleaned using specialist products that remove soap scum, limescale, and any loose material. This stage typically takes 30-45 minutes but ensures the repair bonds properly and lasts for years.
Using colour-matched materials, we build up the repair in thin layers. For chips, we use a special compound that bonds at molecular level with your bath material. Cracks require careful filling and reinforcement to prevent spreading. Our 30 years experience means we know exactly how different bath materials behave.
Each layer is carefully sanded and shaped to match the bath's original contours. The final coat provides a glossy, waterproof finish that's indistinguishable from the surrounding surface.
The repair area is polished to match your bath's existing finish - whether matt, satin, or high gloss. We use professional polishing compounds that create a seamless blend. Special attention is paid to edges and transitions to ensure they're completely smooth and watertight.
Curing time depends on the repair type and season. Most repairs need 24 hours before use, though the bathroom remains accessible. We provide clear aftercare instructions to ensure your repair lasts.
Every repair comes with our comprehensive 12 months warranty covering materials and workmanship. We photograph the completed repair for our records and provide you with care instructions. Our warranty is transferable if you sell your property - adding value for Tipton's active housing market.
Follow-up service is available if you have any concerns. Most repairs last 10-15 years with proper care - we have repairs from 2010 still perfect in homes across Tipton.
