Bath repair for Brook homes

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we handle bath repair in Brook

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and a cracked acrylic bath, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

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

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse it down after each bath

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

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

When to call us in Brook

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
