Bath repair in Bintree

Bath repair in Bintree, done in place

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and rust by the waste and overflow, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

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.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

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

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain when 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. 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, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in Bintree

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
