About our bath repair in Beavan's Hill

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Beavan's Hill questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Signs you need bath repair in Beavan's Hill

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Beavan's Hill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Beavan's Hill?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
