Bath repair near Heytesbury

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BA12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Bath repair at your home in Heytesbury

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Heytesbury

Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Your questions about bath repair in Heytesbury

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Heytesbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
