Bath repair near Preens Eddy

Bath repair in Preens Eddy, done in place

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. 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. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Preens Eddy questions

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

How much does bath repair cost in Preens Eddy?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are there extra charges for Preens Eddy?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How soon can you come?

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

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

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath repair in Preens Eddy?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
