Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Bath repair in Ronkswood, done in place

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and damage beneath the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you need bath repair in Ronkswood?

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Common questions in Ronkswood

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Ronkswood is covered. Prices do not change with location.

When can I have a bath again?

Generally within a day, depending on the repair.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why Ronkswood customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 generally the cheaper route.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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