How we handle bath repair in Nogdam End

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

10 questions to ask before you book

Nogdam End: your questions answered

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Are there extra charges for Nogdam End?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  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, typically the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

There is 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Nogdam End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Nogdam End

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
