Bath repair near Crowdon

Common questions in Crowdon

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are there extra charges for Crowdon?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Crowdon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace in Crowdon?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Do you need bath repair in Crowdon?

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Comparing quotes

  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
