Bath repair in Chadwell Heath without replacing anything

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are impact holes in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Signs you need bath repair in Chadwell Heath

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Chadwell Heath

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chadwell Heath

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Chadwell Heath?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Questions from Chadwell Heath

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

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 I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Chadwell Heath?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your RM6 postcode.
