Landlords, agents and businesses in Chatton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chatton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Bath repair at your home in Chatton

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage from a refit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chatton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Chatton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Chatton questions

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally within a day, depending on the repair.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Chatton.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

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

Signs you need bath repair in Chatton

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
