Questions from Lower Nazeing

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

How we handle bath repair in Lower Nazeing

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and chips caused by builders.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Nazeing as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
