What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Newbald

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Newbald as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace in South Newbald?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Newbald. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in South Newbald

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Questions from South Newbald

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

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.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Are there extra charges for South Newbald?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
