How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  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, typically the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

Signs you need bath repair in Isham

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Isham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Isham: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Isham and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Are there extra charges for Isham?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
