Bath repair in Cramer Gutter

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Bath repair at your home in Cramer Gutter

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the day after. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rust by the waste and overflow and holes from dropped items.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Cramer Gutter

For anyone letting property in or around Cramer Gutter, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Cramer Gutter?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Cramer Gutter

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DY14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in Cramer Gutter?

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
