Bath repair in East Grafton

About our bath repair in East Grafton

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We are often asked to fix chips caused by builders and chips along the edge of the bath, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

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

What affects the price in East Grafton

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in East Grafton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

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

Signs you need bath repair in East Grafton

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A chipped rim or side

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

East Grafton: your questions answered

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
