Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

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

Gamble Hill: your questions answered

How much does bath repair cost in Gamble Hill?

Do you hold any accreditations?

Signs you need bath repair in Gamble Hill

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Gamble Hill

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gamble Hill. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Gamble Hill get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gamble Hill

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gamble Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
