How we handle bath repair in Keinton Mandeville

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Keinton Mandeville and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What affects the price in Keinton Mandeville

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Keinton Mandeville. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Keinton Mandeville

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in Keinton Mandeville

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

When to call us in Keinton Mandeville

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

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