Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kilcot. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

Bath repair in Kilcot without replacing anything

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Kilcot: your questions answered

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Do you work in Kilcot?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kilcot for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Kilcot. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
