Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hellaby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Bath repair in Hellaby, done in place

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips along the edge of the bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Hellaby

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

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we’re called out for in Hellaby

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Your questions about bath repair in Hellaby

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Hellaby

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
