Trusted bath repair in Bockleton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our bath repair in Bockleton

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We are often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bockleton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Bockleton

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day

What your bath is made of matters

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.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Bockleton

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Are there extra charges for Bockleton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
