What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

About our bath repair in Morleymoor

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and chips under the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Morleymoor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Morleymoor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Morleymoor, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Morleymoor

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Will I be able to see the repair?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Morleymoor.

Are there extra charges for Morleymoor?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Signs you need bath repair in Morleymoor

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps
