Bath repair in Mushroom Green

Bath repair at your home in Mushroom Green

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. If you’re dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Mushroom Green

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Mushroom Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in Mushroom Green?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

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

FAQs for Mushroom Green

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
