Repairing versus replacing in Carew

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Typically it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why Carew clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Carew questions

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Carew?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA70 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

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

Will the repair last?

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

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

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.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How invisible is a bath repair?

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

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.

What we are called out for in Carew

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips under the taps

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
