When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Queen's Hills

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually within a day, depending on the repair.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Queen's Hills

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Queen's Hills, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Queen's Hills. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
