Bath repair for Haveringland homes

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How we handle bath repair in Haveringland

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and chips along the edge of the bath.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

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

What we are called out for in Haveringland

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

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.

Your questions about bath repair in Haveringland

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

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.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
