About our bath repair in Radwinter

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and damage beneath the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Composite and resin

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

Questions from Radwinter

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Radwinter

For anyone letting property in or around Radwinter, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When to call us in Radwinter

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Repairing versus replacing in Radwinter

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Radwinter. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Radwinter. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Radwinter, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
