FAQs for Coddington

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do you come to Coddington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Coddington and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Coddington.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How we handle bath repair in Coddington

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a chipped rim or side.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What bath repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • 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 quote the same day in most cases.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: 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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
