Bath repair near Bottom of Hutton

Bath repair at your home in Bottom of Hutton

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bottom of Hutton. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What we are called out for in Bottom of Hutton

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
