Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Store metal items away from the bath

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

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

About our bath repair in Lower Westmancote

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and a chip where the taps sit, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Lower Westmancote

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Holes from dropped items

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Lower Westmancote

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much does bath repair cost in Lower Westmancote?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Lower Westmancote is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
