About our bath repair in Bruna Hill

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and deep scratches in acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

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.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath repair in Bruna Hill?

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about bath repair in Bruna Hill

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

We cover the whole UK, including Bruna Hill and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Bruna Hill.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bruna Hill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
