Your questions about bath repair in Newton-in-the-Isle

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

How much does bath repair cost in Newton-in-the-Isle?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Newton-in-the-Isle and across Cambridgeshire.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Newton-in-the-Isle?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What affects the price in Newton-in-the-Isle

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newton-in-the-Isle. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Newton-in-the-Isle, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Common problems we fix in Newton-in-the-Isle

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Newton-in-the-Isle contact us are:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
