There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath.

What affects the price in Damems

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Common problems we fix in Damems

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Damems

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Typically 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: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Your questions about bath repair in Damems

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Damems?

We do. We send a technician to Damems for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Damems?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
