Bath repair in Croxall, done in place

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we are called out for in Croxall

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

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

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
