Bath repair in Glascote

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath repair at your home in Glascote

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and chips under the taps, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

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

What we work on

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

If you manage property in Glascote, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Glascote

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

Glascote: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Signs you need bath repair in Glascote

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
