Bath repair in Plas Coch, done in place

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include cracks in an acrylic bath and snagging damage from a refit, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Plas Coch, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Plas Coch

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plas Coch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Plas Coch?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

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

What we’re called out for in Plas Coch

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath

How to compare quotes

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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Common questions in Plas Coch

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
