Bath repair in Hyndland, done in place

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips under the taps and chips along the edge of the bath.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hyndland

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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 regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

We price from photos 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Hyndland

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
