How we handle bath repair in Catsgore

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Catsgore as everywhere else we work.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Catsgore

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Catsgore?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Catsgore

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Catsgore. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Catsgore

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

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

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about bath repair in Catsgore

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Are there extra charges for Catsgore?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
