How we handle bath repair in Biggar Road

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Biggar Road and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in Biggar Road

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Biggar Road

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

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

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Biggar Road, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

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, just like other baths.

Acrylic

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

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
