Bath repair in Liddington, done in place

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and a chipped rim or side.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Liddington

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Liddington. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Common problems we fix in Liddington

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • A chip where the taps sit

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Liddington

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. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Liddington

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

What affects the price in Liddington

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Treat the repaired area like the rest of 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 can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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