Bath repair in Overton

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Overton. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Bath repair in Overton, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about rusty patches near the plughole and damage beneath the taps.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

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

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Overton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Overton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Questions from Overton

When can you do it?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it messy?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Overton included. Travel is included in the price.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What we are called out for in Overton

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
