For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Ansty
Do you work in Ansty?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What affects the price in Ansty
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ansty. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ansty, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
