Bath repair near Rolleston

Bath repair in Rolleston without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and chips caused by builders, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Rolleston

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Have new chips seen to early

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rolleston

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rolleston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What we’re called out for in Rolleston

Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Common reasons people in Rolleston contact us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips under the taps

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
