Bath repair in Peakirk

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often 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’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bath repair at your home in Peakirk

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Peakirk

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

When to call us in Peakirk

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips under the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Choosing a repair company

Peakirk: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

How do I book?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Peakirk, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Most customers in Peakirk get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What bath repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
