Bath repair for Aldford homes

Bath repair at your home in Aldford

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What affects the price in Aldford

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Aldford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aldford

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Aldford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Honest limits

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

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
