Bath repair in Eakring

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath repair in Eakring

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can help.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eakring

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material

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 is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repairing versus replacing in Eakring

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Eakring. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Eakring

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Eakring.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

We work UK-wide, so Eakring is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
