Bath repair near Combrook

Common problems we fix in Combrook

Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Bath repair at your home in Combrook

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and chips along the edge of the bath, in cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Combrook questions

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What affects the price in Combrook

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Combrook. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  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 day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
