Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Middleton Priors as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Middleton Priors questions

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Middleton Priors?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Middleton Priors. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Middleton Priors.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Will the price change on the day?

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

How long before I can use the bath?

Generally the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Middleton Priors

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually 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. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Do you need bath repair in Middleton Priors?

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. 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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Middleton Priors. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
