Martinslade questions

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Martinslade is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse it down after each bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Martinslade, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Signs you need bath repair in Martinslade

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Look out for any of the following:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 are paying for.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
