Bath repair for Copt Heath homes

Bath repair in Copt Heath, done in place

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Common questions in Copt Heath

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you come to Copt Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Copt Heath and the rest of Solihull. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

When to call us in Copt Heath

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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 generally use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

What affects the price in Copt Heath

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Copt Heath as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

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.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
