Trusted bath repair in Drury

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Drury, done in place

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Common questions in Drury

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How much does bath repair cost in Drury?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover the whole of Flintshire?

All of Flintshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally within a day, depending on the repair.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drury

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Drury

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Drury

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Drury. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
