Bath repair near Peover Heath

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

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

Bath repair in Peover Heath without replacing anything

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Peover Heath: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Signs you need bath repair in Peover Heath

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Peover Heath?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Cast iron

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

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
