Trusted bath repair in Irton

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Irton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Irton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

About our bath repair in Irton

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the following day. Common call-outs are for chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Before and after: a damaged acrylic bath corner repaired in place

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Irton questions

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How invisible is a bath repair?

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Irton

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

Signs you need bath repair in Irton

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
