Bath repair at your home in Atworth

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and chips on the rim or sides, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we’re called out for in Atworth

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Questions from Atworth

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How much does bath repair cost in Atworth?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Landlord and trade work in Atworth

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

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. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
