Bath repair in Granby

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Do you need bath repair in Granby?

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A chipped rim or side

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

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.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Granby

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Are you accredited?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Honest limits

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

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

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

What we work on

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