Bath repair at your home in Dedworth

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are rust by the waste and overflow and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Before and after: a damaged acrylic bath corner repaired in place

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dedworth

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dedworth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Dedworth

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. 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 it can start to leak underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Dedworth

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
