Bath repair near Cranham Corner

Bath repair at your home in Cranham Corner

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. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and chips on the rim or sides, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Questions from Cranham Corner

Repairing versus replacing in Cranham Corner

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Cranham Corner, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cranham Corner. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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 your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Most customers in Cranham Corner get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Cranham Corner

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.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A chip where the taps sit

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
