Bath repair in Churchbank

Questions from Churchbank

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Bath repair in Churchbank, done in place

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a kit repair that didn’t last, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Churchbank

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips under the taps
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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