Bath repair near Little London

Bath repair at your home in Little London

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We’re frequently asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips under the taps, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Little London and across North East Lincolnshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

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 the part we put right.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What affects the price in Little London

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Little London. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Do you need bath repair in Little London?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Holes from dropped items
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you redo an old repair?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
