Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Cudworth

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cudworth

For anyone letting property in or around Cudworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Cudworth clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No need to remove anything
