Your questions about bath repair in Bradmore

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Bath repair in Bradmore without replacing anything

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and rusty patches near the plughole, across whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Repairing versus replacing in Bradmore

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bradmore. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Bradmore customers choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Signs you need bath repair in Bradmore

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips on the rim or sides

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
