About our bath repair in Great Linford

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and cracks in an acrylic bath.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

When to call us in Great Linford

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Great Linford questions

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long before I can use the bath?

Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Milton Keynes, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Great Linford

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
