Bath repair for Farnsfield homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Farnsfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Farnsfield

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
