Bath repair in Nutcombe without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and rust spots around the plughole, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Nutcombe. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Have new chips seen to early

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

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

Questions from Nutcombe

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

We cover the entire UK, including Nutcombe and the rest of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nutcombe

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

Common problems we fix in Nutcombe

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
