Your questions about bath repair in Holloway

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Bath repair in Holloway without replacing anything

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Do you need bath repair in Holloway?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What affects the price in Holloway

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Repair or replace in Holloway?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
