Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about a chipped rim or side and impact holes in acrylic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 next day.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Sands End

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sands End. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Sands End, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about bath repair in Sands End

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Sands End included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you need bath repair in Sands End?

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Why repair rather than replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sands End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Sands End clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
