Bath repair at your home in Edenfield

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with cracks in an acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can usually put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Your questions about bath repair in Edenfield

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you come to Edenfield?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Edenfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Repairing versus replacing in Edenfield

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

When to call us in Edenfield

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Holes from dropped items
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

For landlords and businesses

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, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
