What else we do in Hullbridge
Repairing versus replacing in Hullbridge
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
Take a look at our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hullbridge
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Hullbridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel

Common problems we fix in Hullbridge
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.

- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
