Bath repair near Lyng

Bath repair at your home in Lyng

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chip where the taps sit, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

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

Rusty chip next to a bath plughole, before and after repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Lyng

Do you come to Lyng?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lyng from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Lyng. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lyng use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
