Huntley questions

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work in Huntley?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Huntley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Bath repair in Huntley without replacing anything

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips under the taps, we can help.

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

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we work on in Huntley

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Huntley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common problems we fix in Huntley

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
