A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Alltyblaca

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alltyblaca use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Alltyblaca. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Alltyblaca and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When to call us in Alltyblaca

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
