About our bath repair in Sandycroft

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and holes from dropped items, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandycroft

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Flintshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

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

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Sandycroft: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How much does bath repair cost in Sandycroft?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Do you work in Sandycroft?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sandycroft for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually 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 when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
