Bath repair at your home in Burkham

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the rim or sides and rusty patches near the plughole, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Burkham

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

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Do you need bath repair in Burkham?

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

How to compare quotes

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Burkham, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

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

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about bath repair in Burkham

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

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.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How much does bath repair cost in Burkham?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
