Aber-oer questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Bath repair at your home in Aber-oer

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Repairing versus replacing in Aber-oer

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Aber-oer. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we are called out for in Aber-oer

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
