Bath repair in Ab Lench

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Bath repair at your home in Ab Lench

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Common questions in Ab Lench

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the whole of Worcestershire?

All of Worcestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WR11 postcode.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
