What we are called out for in Goose Green

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Bath repair in Goose Green, done in place

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  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, normally the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Take a look at our prices page or bath cost comparison.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Goose Green

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Goose Green

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Goose Green and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
