About our bath repair in Brumstead

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and snagging damage from a refit, we can normally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Brumstead

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you come to Brumstead?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Brumstead. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you need bath repair in Brumstead?

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Brumstead

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Brumstead clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Brumstead get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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’s the part we put right.

Composite and resin

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

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

For anyone letting property in or around Brumstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
