One thing we are often asked about is, “How do you get the right colour?” This is a good question as few whites are the same, and is in fact, a key skill of the job.
One has to be able to match the colour of the fixture one is repairing. You have to be able to match the colour by custom building it by eye which we do on the spot on the day.
We can achieve a very good result

Bath Enamel Repair Procedure
- We inspect the damage to the area and work out the best way to repair it.
- We fill the crack, hole or chip with a special filler for that particular item
- We then sand the filler so that the damage is filled and the contour of the surface is restored.
- We use the bonding agent again over the filler, and the entire area to ensure that the new surface is stuck down fast once we spray the matching colour on and blend it out into the original surface.
Bath Enamel Repair Standard
The quality of the repair we go for is that you can no longer see the original damage, chip, crack, etc. We have to keep in mind that it is a repair after all and not a completely new bath or shower tray fixture.
The procedure described briefly above usually vanishes out any trace of the original damage and the repair itself, but we can’t promise that it will be absolutely undetectable by everybody as each person has a different ability to sense and perceive and a greater or lesser desire to find it and judge it.
The system is designed and specified for the repair of baths and shower trays in newly built properties or hotels where the criteria is such that someone buying the property or using the fixture would not notice anything or be able to find the repair if they were told there was one. It is not visible to them. Someone can walk into the room, look over the bath and see nothing wrong with it. This is the standard we can achieve with the technology as it now exists.
If however what is required is a standard whereby one knows where the repair is and expects to be unable to tell any difference at all between that area and another that has not been worked on or detect any difference of a repair whatsoever, we can’t promise that.
In some situations if you repeatedly run your hand over the area and move your head back and fourth back and fourth so as to catch it in different light reflections or use a torch and a magnifying glass you may be able to notice something. It is after all a repair and the objective is to improve the situation within reason in such a way that it is not noticed in normal use.
That we can achieve.
Do Bath Repair kits work?
We only see the repair kits that did not produce a satisfactory result – so we probably have a bias on this point – also we know the difference in quality between the use of a kit and what we can achieve.
The kits tend to fall short in that the colour provided is usually too white so they look like a white patch. Some do have little tinters so that you can adjust the colour but that’s a really skilled task and it takes me quite a long time to train someone in this skill even with all the gear. We make up the colour for your fixture on site to match your fixture.
This brings us to the next point. We carry about 80 things in our toolboxes to carry out this work whereas a kit will have perhaps five.
When we go to put right a kit repair that is not good enough it is usually the case that the use of the kit has made the situation and the size of the repair much bigger. Inexperienced hands usually sand wide of the mark and use excessive coating requiring a lot of work to undo and this can add to the expense of the repair.
It is necessary to be very discreet when doing a repair and to crop it down to the minimum.
We also encounter situations where the kit filler came out soon after it was applied and this is because the list do not come with a bonding agent to secure the filler and the coating in place. We use our proprietary bonding agent minimally twice for any one repair.
I think that a kit repair is only appropriate where a temporary patch up is needed because the unit is planned for replacement in the not to distant future or it’s for people who don’t really care that much about the appearance of the unit anyway.
