Bath repair at your home in Eye Green

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Your questions about bath repair in Eye Green

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Do you repair coloured baths?

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

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

What affects the price in Eye Green

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Eye Green. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eye Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Signs you need bath repair in Eye Green

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
