Bath repair near Baverstock

Bath repair in Baverstock without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. If you’re dealing with damage beneath the taps and holes from dropped items, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repair or replace in Baverstock?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. 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’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Baverstock

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A chipped rim or side

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Baverstock, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Store metal items away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Baverstock questions

How long before I can use the bath?

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

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Baverstock?

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
