Bath repair for Bushmills homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

About our bath repair in Bushmills

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with scuffs and scratches in the surface and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Moyle.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

When to call us in Bushmills

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Bushmills: your questions answered

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Moyle and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
