About our bath repair in Kinmundy

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Kinmundy

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

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

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Landlord and trade work in Kinmundy

For anyone letting property in or around Kinmundy, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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

What we work on

Kinmundy: your questions answered

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Do you cover Kinmundy?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Kinmundy and the rest of Aberdeen. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Do you need bath repair in Kinmundy?

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Holes from dropped items

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
