Need bath repair in Nash?

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Bath repair at your home in Nash

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Your questions about bath repair in Nash

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

What about rust by the waste?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Nash. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

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

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

For a price in Nash, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath repair in Nash

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
