About our bath repair in Old Windsor

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are frequently asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and chips on the rim or sides, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

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 moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Old Windsor. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Common problems we fix in Old Windsor

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

FAQs for Old Windsor

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
