About our bath repair in Bayton Common

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s chips under the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bayton Common. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Bayton Common and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Bayton Common

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Bayton Common

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
