Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

About our bath repair in Coniston

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rust spots around the plughole, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you need bath repair in Coniston?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Look out for these signs:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Choosing a repair company

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Coniston: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: 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. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Coniston

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coniston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
