Bath repair in Coltsfoot Green

Bath repair at your home in Coltsfoot Green

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and a chip where the taps sit, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Coltsfoot Green?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Do you need bath repair in Coltsfoot Green?

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Chips under the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A steel bath rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Coltsfoot Green

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Coltsfoot Green

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
