How we handle bath repair in Friskney

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We are frequently asked to fix chips under the taps and a kit repair that didn’t last, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Friskney: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

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.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Repairing versus replacing in Friskney

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Friskney. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Friskney

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
