Trusted bath repair in North Owersby

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath repair in North Owersby, done in place

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about damage beneath the taps and a cracked acrylic bath.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
