Bath repair in Mollington without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Typical jobs include an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and snagging damage from a refit, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Common questions in Mollington

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

How much does bath repair cost in Mollington?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mollington

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Signs you need bath repair in Mollington

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
