Bath repair for Addiebrownhill homes

Bath repair in Addiebrownhill, done in place

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re often asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips along the edge of the bath, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss 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 anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Addiebrownhill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

How much does bath repair cost in Addiebrownhill?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EH55 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
