Your questions about bath repair in Hazelbury Bryan

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Bath repair in Hazelbury Bryan without replacing anything

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. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and chips along the edge of the bath, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hazelbury Bryan

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Common problems we fix in Hazelbury Bryan

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  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, generally the day after.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

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.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
