Bath repair near Ballymoney

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

About our bath repair in Ballymoney

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ballymoney and the surrounding area.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ballymoney

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Signs you need bath repair in Ballymoney

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

Questions from Ballymoney

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Ballymoney. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Do you cover Ballymoney?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ballymoney and the rest of Ballymoney. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
