Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath repair in Fitton End

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Common questions in Fitton End

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
