Bath repair for Moorsholm homes

About our bath repair in Moorsholm

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and a cracked acrylic bath.

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

Questions from Moorsholm

Will the repair last?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

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

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Do you come to Moorsholm?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Moorsholm from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Moorsholm?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How much does bath repair cost in Moorsholm?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TS12 postcode.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Repairing versus replacing in Moorsholm

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need bath repair in Moorsholm?

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

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

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos 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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
