How we handle bath repair in Clewer

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and chips under the taps, in whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Clewer

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Do you need bath repair in Clewer?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Clewer

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Clewer, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
