Book bath repair in Pitcot

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How we handle bath repair in Pitcot

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust spots around the plughole.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Pitcot

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pitcot. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

The process

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. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Landlord and trade work in Pitcot

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pitcot as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Pitcot questions

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Pitcot?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

What information do you need?

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
