Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Bath repair at your home in Beaumont Leys

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Beaumont Leys questions

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When to call us in Beaumont Leys

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Look out for these signs:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Beaumont Leys

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

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
