Trusted bath repair in Griffithstown

Bath repair at your home in Griffithstown

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and a cracked acrylic bath, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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 any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

We price from pictures 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’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NP4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Griffithstown?

Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
