We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnt Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Should you replace it?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Burnt Hill

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.

What areas do you cover?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Burnt Hill?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Burnt Hill?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When to call us in Burnt Hill

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Common reasons people in Burnt Hill contact us are:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work 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. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
