What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Little Easton

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you cover Little Easton?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do I have to be there?

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

Do you need bath repair in Little Easton?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
