Bath repair in Gaydon, done in place

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We are often asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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. Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Gaydon: your questions answered

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What does bath repair cost?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common problems we fix in Gaydon

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Gaydon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Have new chips seen to early

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
