About our bath repair in Farington

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Farington customers choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Farington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

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.

Questions from Farington

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Do you come to Farington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Farington. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
