Need bath repair in Foxendown?

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How we handle bath repair in Foxendown

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are deep scratches in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Foxendown questions

Do you cover Foxendown?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Foxendown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Foxendown?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

What we are called out for in Foxendown

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. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Foxendown

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Foxendown. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Foxendown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Foxendown?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
