What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Common questions in Crouch

How do I get a price for bath repair in Crouch?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Common problems we fix in Crouch

A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our full price list or bath cost comparison.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
