Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

About our bath repair in Benningholme

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and a cracked acrylic bath.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Benningholme

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Benningholme clients choose us

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Benningholme

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Benningholme. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
