About our bath repair in Burgham

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add 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.

Common problems we fix in Burgham

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy 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. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

FAQs for Burgham

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
