Bath repair near Findon

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we handle bath repair in Findon

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and cracks in an acrylic bath, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Findon, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath repair in Findon

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Findon

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through

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

Questions from Findon

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BN14 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
