What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos 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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Adforton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adforton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Adforton clients choose us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Your questions about bath repair in Adforton

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Generally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

How much does bath repair cost in Adforton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you need bath repair in Adforton?

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
