Bath repair in Blyborough, done in place

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Rinse it down after each bath

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

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Blyborough

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage beneath the taps

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in Blyborough

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you work in Blyborough?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Blyborough and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
