Common questions in Cutler Heights

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Have new chips seen to early

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we’re called out for in Cutler Heights

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Cutler Heights, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
