Bath repair in Bradley

Bath repair at your home in Bradley

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Bradley

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Bradley. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Bradley?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Repairing versus replacing in Bradley

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: 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. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Bradley

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Bradley

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chipped rim or side

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
