Bath repair near Lady Hall

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

About our bath repair in Lady Hall

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, typically in a single visit. Whether it’s scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a cracked acrylic bath, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

Questions from Lady Hall

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lady Hall. Prices do not change with location.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What we’re called out for in Lady Hall

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips under the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

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

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.
