Bath repair in Greenway

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath repair in Greenway, done in place

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

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

What your bath is made of matters

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 the part we put right.

Composite and resin

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

Landlord and trade work in Greenway

For anyone letting property in or around Greenway, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

FAQs for Greenway

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you need bath repair in Greenway?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
