Bath repair near Bosherston

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bosherston. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Bosherston without replacing anything

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and deep scratches in acrylic, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Store metal items away from the bath

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.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bosherston

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bosherston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SA71 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Bosherston

Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Bosherston: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

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

Is it messy?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Repairing versus replacing in Bosherston

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

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