Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Do you need bath repair in Bradley?

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

If you manage property in Bradley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Questions from Bradley

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Bradley and the rest of Wrexham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What affects the price in Bradley

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in Bradley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bradley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
