Landlord and trade work in Old Rayne
For anyone letting property in or around Old Rayne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Bath repair in Old Rayne, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with a chip where the taps sit and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Old Rayne questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through

Common problems we fix in Old Rayne
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
- Snagging damage from a refit

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

- How to look after the finish
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Old Rayne and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
