Bath repair in Newbold-on-Avon

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Bath repair in Newbold-on-Avon without replacing anything

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Your questions about bath repair in Newbold-on-Avon

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Newbold-on-Avon is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does bath repair cost in Newbold-on-Avon?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newbold-on-Avon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
