How we handle bath repair in Littleferry

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the day after. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about chips under the taps and rust spots around the plughole.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Littleferry

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

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

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Littleferry

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Littleferry customers choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
