When to call us in Beeley

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips under the taps
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Common questions in Beeley

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE4 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Beeley. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
