Trusted bath repair in Curteis' Corner

Curteis' Corner: your questions answered

Do you cover Curteis' Corner?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Curteis' Corner. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

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

Bath repair at your home in Curteis' Corner

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can generally put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Curteis' Corner

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Curteis' Corner as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Curteis' Corner

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Curteis' Corner. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Curteis' Corner, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
