How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

How we handle bath repair in Burnham-on-Sea

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit, we can typically put it right.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

What affects the price in Burnham-on-Sea

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Burnham-on-Sea. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Burnham-on-Sea

  • Pressed steel enamel

When to call us in Burnham-on-Sea

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Burnham-on-Sea

How long before I can use the bath?

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

Is there any odour?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover Burnham-on-Sea?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Burnham-on-Sea from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How invisible is a bath repair?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Burnham-on-Sea, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
