Landlord and trade work in Arnold
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Do you need bath repair in Arnold?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Arnold. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the whole UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
