About our bath repair in Alne End

All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and chips caused by builders.

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95.

  • No need to remove anything

FAQs for Alne End

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the repair last?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alne End

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

What affects the price in Alne End

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
