What affects the price in Blisworth

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Blisworth. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Common problems we fix in Blisworth

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Blisworth

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace in Blisworth?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Your questions about bath repair in Blisworth

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Blisworth.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
