Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Bath repair in Rednal, done in place

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can generally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  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. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

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

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Rednal

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about bath repair in Rednal

Are there extra charges for Rednal?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
