About our bath repair in Frost Row

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you’re dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Frost Row

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Frost Row, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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 your bath is made of matters

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 is what we repair.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Frost Row questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Do you need bath repair in Frost Row?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
