Trusted bath repair in Hayhill

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KA6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Bath repair at your home in Hayhill

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. If you are dealing with holes from dropped items and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Common questions in Hayhill

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Hayhill?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hayhill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

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

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Signs you need bath repair in Hayhill

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book
