Need bath repair in Mickley Square?

Can I fix it myself?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Bath repair in Mickley Square without replacing anything

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused by builders and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Mickley Square

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do I have to be there?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

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

For landlords and businesses

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Mickley Square

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Mickley Square customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • Work done at your home or business

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Mickley Square, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
