High Beech questions
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for High Beech?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
