How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  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. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairing versus replacing in Roanheads

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

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

Common questions in Roanheads

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you repair coloured baths?

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

How much does bath repair cost in Roanheads?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AB42 postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Will the repair show?

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

What happens next?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When to call us in Roanheads

A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips under the taps
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
