Bath repair for Mount Pleasant homes

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Bath repair at your home in Mount Pleasant

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mount Pleasant. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Mount Pleasant

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you work in Mount Pleasant?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mount Pleasant and the rest of Hampshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Mount Pleasant. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mount Pleasant

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Mount Pleasant, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Signs you need bath repair in Mount Pleasant

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chip where the taps sit

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
