About our bath repair in North Gate

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Typical jobs include an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and a chipped rim or side, in acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace in North Gate?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including North Gate. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in North Gate, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in North Gate

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
