When to call us in Carey Park

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Damage beneath the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

Bath repair in Carey Park without replacing anything

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Carey Park

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Composite and resin

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add 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.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

Repair or replace in Carey Park?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
