Bath repair in Kingsway Village

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  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. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath repair in Kingsway Village

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and chips under the taps, we can help, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about bath repair in Kingsway Village

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • A chipped rim or side
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kingsway Village. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you’re in Kingsway Village and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
