Bath repair in Causewayhead

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often 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.

Bath repair in Causewayhead without replacing anything

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and deep scratches in acrylic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
