Repairing versus replacing in Bellahouston

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Bath repair in Bellahouston without replacing anything

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

When to call us in Bellahouston

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common questions in Bellahouston

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How invisible is a bath repair?

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.

What do you need from me?

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

Are there extra charges for Bellahouston?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Bellahouston included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you work in Bellahouston?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bellahouston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Bellahouston, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
