Bath repair for Hunter's Town homes

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common problems we fix in Hunter's Town

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repairs by material

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

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

What affects the price in Hunter's Town

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

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hunter's Town, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
