About our bath repair in Maritime Quarter

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and a hole punched through by something heavy, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Maritime Quarter: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you redo an old repair?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves 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 the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

What we’re called out for in Maritime Quarter

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What bath repair costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive

Look after 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.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
