How we price bath repair

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

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SN12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

About our bath repair in Broughton Gifford

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a kit repair that didn’t last.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Broughton Gifford?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Broughton Gifford customers choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broughton Gifford

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Rinse it down after each bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

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 to call us in Broughton Gifford

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
