Bath repair in Bascote Heath

How we handle bath repair in Bascote Heath

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the following day. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Bascote Heath

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bascote Heath

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

What we’re called out for in Bascote Heath

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

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. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when 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. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
