Landlords, agents and businesses in Codmore Hill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Codmore Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

About our bath repair in Codmore Hill

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a kit repair that didn’t last, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Repairing versus replacing in Codmore Hill

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Codmore Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Codmore Hill: your questions answered

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

What affects the price in Codmore Hill

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
