Bath repair for Ipsley homes

Bath repair at your home in Ipsley

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. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for chips along the edge of the bath and a cracked acrylic bath, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the price in Ipsley

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Ipsley: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Ipsley?

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

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. 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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ipsley

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 in Worcestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
