About our bath repair in Church End

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s chips under the taps and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What we’re called out for in Church End

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about bath repair in Church End

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Church End.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there any odour?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Different materials, different repairs

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 the part we put right.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Church End

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Church End as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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.
