About our bath repair in Cannon Hill

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re frequently asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Cannon Hill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Cannon Hill

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does the repair take to cure?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you repair coloured baths?

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

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What we’re called out for in Cannon Hill

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips under the taps
  • Holes from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.
