Book bath repair in Chapel St Leonards

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?

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 you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chapel St Leonards. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What bath repair costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Chapel St Leonards

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are there extra charges for Chapel St Leonards?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Do you need bath repair in Chapel St Leonards?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chapel St Leonards
