Questions from Melton Constable

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath repair in Melton Constable

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Melton Constable

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Melton Constable. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
