What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Carlton in Lindrick

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Carlton in Lindrick

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

For anyone letting property in or around Carlton in Lindrick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Signs you need bath repair in Carlton in Lindrick

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
