What affects the price in Milwich

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Milwich, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle bath repair in Milwich

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

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

Materials we repair

Common questions in Milwich

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
