Bath repair for Larkton homes

Bath repair in Larkton, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, we can usually put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Larkton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Larkton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cheshire West and Chester.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

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

Repairing versus replacing in Larkton

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
