About our bath repair in Hunton

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or sides and a cracked acrylic bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hunton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Hunton customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Hunton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hunton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hunton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Your questions about bath repair in Hunton

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Composite and resin

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