Bath repair for Mayeston homes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Bath repair in Mayeston without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Mayeston

A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A chipped rim or side

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Mayeston

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Mayeston

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in Mayeston?

We do. We send a technician to Mayeston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mayeston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
