When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, 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. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Oddington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Lower Oddington

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Oddington. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath

For a price in Lower Oddington, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and 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. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL56 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath repair in Lower Oddington

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
