Need bath repair in Lilyhurst?

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Bath repair in Lilyhurst without replacing anything

A damaged bath doesn’t 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. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and impact holes in acrylic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace in Lilyhurst?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lilyhurst. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lilyhurst. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
