How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Humberston. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Humberston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we handle bath repair in Humberston

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. If you are dealing with chips caused by builders and rust by the waste and overflow, we can usually put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Common questions in Humberston

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
