Sandy questions
How much does bath repair cost in Sandy?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Sandy?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sandy for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Sandy?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandy
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sandy use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common problems we fix in Sandy
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What to look for in a quote

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
