Trusted bath repair in Kitt Green

What affects the price in Kitt Green

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kitt Green. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Kitt Green, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Bath repair in Kitt Green, done in place

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Do you need bath repair in Kitt Green?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Holes from dropped items

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Kitt Green?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

FAQs for Kitt Green

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Can you redo an old repair?

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

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How long does the repair take to cure?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
