Landlords, agents and businesses in Burn's Green

For anyone letting property in or around Burn's Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

Common questions in Burn's Green

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • 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.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Burn's Green. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Burn's Green

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Repair or replace in Burn's Green?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Burn's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
