Common questions in Claygate Cross
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Claygate Cross?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TN15 postcode.
Do you cover Claygate Cross?
We do. Technicians travel to Claygate Cross from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What else we do in Claygate Cross
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Claygate Cross, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
Common problems we fix in Claygate Cross
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
