How we handle bath repair in Low Torry

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and chips caused by builders, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.

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

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.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Common problems we fix in Low Torry

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Holes from dropped items

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Low Torry, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should you replace it?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Low Torry. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • 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 usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your KY12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath repair in Low Torry

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

How much does bath repair cost in Low Torry?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
