Bath repair in Lazonby

What affects the price in Lazonby

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Bath repair at your home in Lazonby

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Common questions in Lazonby

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover Lazonby?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Lazonby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

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

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

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

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Landlord and trade work in Lazonby

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lazonby use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
