Repair or replace in Almodington?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Almodington questions

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

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

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Do you need bath repair in Almodington?

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rust spots around the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  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 following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
