Trusted bath repair in Pear Ash

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

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.

About our bath repair in Pear Ash

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. If you’re dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and a chipped rim or side, we can usually put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Pear Ash

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our pricing and bath cost comparison.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Pear Ash

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pear Ash

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Pear Ash. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Common problems we fix in Pear Ash

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

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

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Questions from Pear Ash

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there any odour?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What information do you need?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
