How we handle bath repair in Cortworth

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cortworth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Cortworth, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about bath repair in Cortworth

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically within a day, depending on the repair.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Cortworth clients choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common problems we fix in Cortworth

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips under the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
