Bath repair in Great Haywood

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  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. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Advice

How we handle bath repair in Great Haywood

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you are dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

When to call us in Great Haywood

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Haywood

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Great Haywood clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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 we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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