How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Abraham Heights

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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 next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Your questions about bath repair in Abraham Heights

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

How soon can you come?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
