Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Bath repair at your home in Pyle

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are damage beneath the taps and holes from dropped items.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  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, typically the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Pyle

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Pyle?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Pyle from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

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

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.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pyle

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

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.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pyle. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pyle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
