Bath repair at your home in High Farnhill

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We are frequently asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and a chipped rim or side, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, 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, in much the same way.

Questions from High Farnhill

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Are there extra charges for High Farnhill?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for High Farnhill. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in High Farnhill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in High Farnhill?

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chip where the taps sit

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Why repair rather than replace?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for High Farnhill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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