How we handle bath repair in Eyeworth

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Signs you need bath repair in Eyeworth

A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.

Common reasons people in Eyeworth contact us are:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage beneath the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eyeworth

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Eyeworth get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Eyeworth questions

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

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’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
