Bath repair for Cannard's Grave homes

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

About our bath repair in Cannard's Grave

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cannard's Grave. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Cannard's Grave

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Impact holes in acrylic

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Cannard's Grave

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Cannard's Grave is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can you redo an old repair?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cannard's Grave as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Cannard's Grave?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
