Bath repair near Forsbrook

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Bath repair in Forsbrook, done in place

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with rust spots around the plughole and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we’re called out for in Forsbrook

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Have new chips seen to early

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Repair or replace in Forsbrook?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What affects the price in Forsbrook

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

Your questions about bath repair in Forsbrook

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Do you work in Forsbrook?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Forsbrook. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
