How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Farm Town

Are there extra charges for Farm Town?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a bath repair durable?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

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.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farm Town use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why repair rather than replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Farm Town clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Signs you need bath repair in Farm Town

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
