Bath repair in Broad Street Green

Landlord and trade work in Broad Street Green

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we handle bath repair in Broad Street Green

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Common call-outs are for rust spots around the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Broad Street Green: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What do you need from me?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

When to call us in Broad Street Green

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why Broad Street Green clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
