Bath repair in Catterton

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Have new chips seen to early

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. 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 we handle bath repair in Catterton

We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Whether it’s a hole punched through by something heavy and chips caused by builders, we can help, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why repair rather than replace?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Catterton

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Catterton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Catterton

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Common questions in Catterton

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

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

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
