Bath repair in Goose Hill without replacing anything

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Berkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we’re called out for in Goose Hill

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust spots around the plughole

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
