Bath repair in Cameron Toll

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Bath repair at your home in Cameron Toll

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for impact holes in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Cameron Toll: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you come to Cameron Toll?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Cameron Toll from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will the repair last?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Repair or replace in Cameron Toll?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Cameron Toll

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Common reasons people in Cameron Toll contact us are:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
