How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath

Most clients in Bassingfield get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Your questions about bath repair in Bassingfield

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Landlord and trade work in Bassingfield

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bassingfield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Common problems we fix in Bassingfield

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bassingfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
