Bath repair near Dunstall Hill

Bath repair in Dunstall Hill, 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, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and holes from dropped items, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Dunstall Hill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunstall Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Dunstall Hill. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dunstall Hill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, 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, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
