Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Have new chips seen to early

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

How we handle bath repair in Langworth

A damaged bath does not 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. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Langworth

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langworth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No extra charge for your area

Common questions in Langworth

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Langworth?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Langworth and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

When to call us in Langworth

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips under the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
