Trusted bath repair in Dragons Green

Bath repair in Dragons Green, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can generally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dragons Green

If you manage property in Dragons Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

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.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  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, usually the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
