Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bainton

For anyone letting property in or around Bainton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Repair or replace in Bainton?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Questions from Bainton

How long does the repair take to cure?

Usually the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Bainton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How much does bath repair cost in Bainton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your PE9 postcode.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath

For a price in Bainton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
