Bath repair for Paradise homes

Your questions about bath repair in Paradise

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you work in Paradise?

We do. We send a technician to Paradise for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What areas do you cover?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Bath repair at your home in Paradise

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and impact holes in acrylic, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Paradise

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Landlord and trade work in Paradise

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Paradise use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace in Paradise?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
