Bath repair near Molland

Bath repair in Molland without replacing anything

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and chips on the rim or sides, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Molland

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Molland as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What affects the price in Molland

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Molland. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Molland questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Molland is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Molland

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Molland

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
