Bath repair for Belton-in-Rutland homes

Bath repair at your home in Belton-in-Rutland

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the next day. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and chips along the edge of the bath, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Belton-in-Rutland

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Belton-in-Rutland, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Belton-in-Rutland. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
