Bath repair near Otherton

What affects the price in Otherton

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Otherton without replacing anything

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. If you are dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Care for 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.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Otherton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs

Common problems we fix in Otherton

Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Common questions in Otherton

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

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.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Otherton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
