What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Roskear Croft: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Signs you need bath repair in Roskear Croft

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

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 are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  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. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Advice

Repair or replace in Roskear Croft?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Roskear Croft customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
