Bath repair for East Horsley homes

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Your questions about bath repair in East Horsley

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you need bath repair in East Horsley?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before you book

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 the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A steel bath rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in East Horsley

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Repair or replace in East Horsley?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
