Landlords, agents and businesses in Haslingfield

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Haslingfield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we handle bath repair in Haslingfield

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks in an acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Haslingfield. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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

When to call us in Haslingfield

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chip where the taps sit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
