Bath repair in Pendine, done in place

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or sides and a hole punched through by something heavy, across whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Pendine and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Pendine questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Pendine included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work in Pendine?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pendine. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pendine. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Pendine, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
