What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Boothtown. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Boothtown. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Boothtown get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What we are called out for in Boothtown

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chipped rim or side

Our hiring checklist

Boothtown: your questions answered

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Boothtown?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Boothtown?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Boothtown. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
