Bath repair near Liurbost

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

About our bath repair in Liurbost

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, in roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

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

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Liurbost: your questions answered

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Are there extra charges for Liurbost?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Common problems we fix in Liurbost

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Liurbost, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
