Bath repair at your home in Cummingston

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can typically put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Cummingston

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need bath repair in Cummingston?

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.

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

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A chipped rim or side

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Cummingston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Cummingston

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Cummingston questions

How long before I can use the bath?

Typically within a day, depending on the repair.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

What affects the price in Cummingston

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cummingston. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
