Bath repair for Moreton-in-Marsh homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Colour-matched on site

Bath repair in Moreton-in-Marsh without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and rust by the waste and overflow, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. 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, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Questions from Moreton-in-Marsh

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Moreton-in-Marsh?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL56 postcode.

When can I have a bath again?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Are there extra charges for Moreton-in-Marsh?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

What we are called out for in Moreton-in-Marsh

Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Moreton-in-Marsh

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Moreton-in-Marsh, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
