DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Questions from Newland

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

The entire UK, including all of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

We do. We send a technician to Newland for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newland. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newland use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Newland

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Newland contact us are:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
