Bath repair near Golftyn

Bath repair in Golftyn, done in place

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chipped rim or side.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlord and trade work in Golftyn

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common problems we fix in Golftyn

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Damage beneath the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
