Bath repair at your home in Hammill Park

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

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

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

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath repair in Hammill Park

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Does someone need to be in?

Will the repair show?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Landlord and trade work in Hammill Park

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hammill Park use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse it down after each bath

There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hammill Park. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
