Bath repair near Cherhill

About our bath repair in Cherhill

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the day after. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and snagging damage from a refit, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in Cherhill

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

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Cherhill, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

FAQs for Cherhill

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Wiltshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you work in Cherhill?

We do. We send a technician to Cherhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cherhill

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

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.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
