Trusted bath repair in North Nibley

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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, typically the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Bath repair in North Nibley without replacing anything

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Typical jobs include cracks in an acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repair or replace in North Nibley?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Your questions about bath repair in North Nibley

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

How much does bath repair cost in North Nibley?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Nibley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
