Bath repair near Blubberhouses

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

FAQs for Blubberhouses

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Blubberhouses. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

What affects the price in Blubberhouses

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need bath repair in Blubberhouses?

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
