About our bath repair in Crudwell

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

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 a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Crudwell: your questions answered

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

What your bath is made of matters

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’s what we repair.

Composite and resin

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

When to call us in Crudwell

Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
