Bath repair in Bradley Cross

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

How we handle bath repair in Bradley Cross

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

What affects the price in Bradley Cross

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

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.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Your questions about bath repair in Bradley Cross

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Bradley Cross and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Can I fix it myself?

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. 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.
