Bath repair for Hampton Lovett homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

About our bath repair in Hampton Lovett

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

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

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

What affects the price in Hampton Lovett

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WR9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlord and trade work in Hampton Lovett

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Worcestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hampton Lovett use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 Hampton Lovett clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
