Bath repair in North Brentor

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How we handle bath repair in North Brentor

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath repair in North Brentor?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, 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.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for North Brentor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why North Brentor customers choose us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

If you’re in North Brentor and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Related advice

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

North Brentor: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including North Brentor and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
